I was trying to read 12 books this year, and I managed 14 (trying to finish the 15th before Saturday). Will probably keep the same challenge for the next year.

I don't like to be too "precise" with this sort of challenge, because I think it could hinder me, instead of motivate, that's why I don't do page count challenges.

Still, since I'm doing it for myself, I also don't cheat by reading small books just for the volume, I just read what I feel like... in fact, this year I read 4 Dune books (1st to 4th) and 3 Dark Tower books (4th to 6th, currently trying to finish the 7th), so the page count is fairly decent.
