Well I have set my goal at 150 books for 2017. I figure since I read 141 in 2016, I should be able to reach 150 books next year. We shall see.
I also decided to try something new this year. I had heard of the Modern Mrs. Darcy reading challenge before, but I decided to participate for the first time for 2017. Here is the challenge I'm doing:
