I set a goal of 52 books for 2016. Might be hard to hit considering I didn't read any books January-April! I was just super into podcasts, but I'm getting back into reading.
Do you set reading goals for the year?

Yes! I'm obsessed with keeping my goodreads updated. I set a goal of 20 for this year and I'm at 7 but I just started about 4 weeks ago. Hoping to pass 20, I'm averaging a book every 5 days right now.

I haven't set a goal of how many, but I set myself a goal to keep a running list of everything I've read this year. So far I'm at 36.

Not really. I keep a list of the ones I've read, but I don't set an annual number goal or tally them up. All books are not equal, so it seems strange to me to give them all the same "weight" as a matter of goal-setting.
I do try to set aside a certain amount of time for reading every day or every other day. And I have a list of books I want to get from the library and a shelf of books I own that I definitely want to read/finish/read again. I guess my "goals" are loose ones.
Also, I feel like all the books I read to LO "count" (if we're tallying )! Just about everything we're reading these days is meant to be enjoyed by adults too.

Wow! My BFF did that last year. It was intense!
She and I have a short list of books that we're going to read at the same time this year, but no real goals other than that.
Good luck!

No goals. I love reading so much and read so quickly that I often have to force myself to slow down so that I don't spend too much money on books or stay up too late reading. I'd guess I read 1-2 books per week on average anyway, and more than that when I get on a roll.

Taking it easier this year with 20 books. I read 51 books last year, 1 above my goal.

Yep. 100 books. Already at 69. Might have to up it.
Also doing the book riot read harder challenge this year so I branch out and not spend the year reading YA dystopian fiction.
