So it's that time of year when I start thinking about my goals and once again I don't want to put too much pressure on myself. Particularly as I spent a good portion of last year not being in the right headspace to read or blog. These are goals that I'm going to treat more as a nice to do rather than I must complete them...
- Read 52 books - One a week, I think I should manage this just fine as even with the set backs of last year I managed to smash this
- Try to read at least one chapter a day - This is definitely more of an aim. I had some success with this last year, but I want to get back in the habit of reading on the bus to work and reading in bed before work on my WFH days.
- Focus on finishing (or catching up on) the following series/duologies, rather than start new ones:
- The Nevernight Trilogy, Jay Kristoff (Read the 1st)
- Percy Jackson and the Olympians, Rick Riordan (Read the first 3)
- Monsters of Verity, V E Schwab (Read the 1st)
- ACOTAR, Sarah J Maas (re-read the first then read the rest)
- The Lorien Legacies, Pittacus Lore (Read the first 2)
- The Hunger Games, Suzanne Collins (Re-read the first 2, last book to re-read and prequel to read)
- His Dark Materials, Philip Pullman (re-read the first 2, last book still to re-read)
- Don't buy more books than I read each month - This is the same as last year and using my reading journal I did have some success so I'm just going to carry on with it.
- Try to read at least one book each month that I haul that month - This is more to make sure that I try and be a bit more selective of the books I buy and only buy if I want to start reading it straight away.

These are all such sensible goals. I need to do the same!
