I made my 2023 list recently. Instead of picking a number of books, I budgeted a page count based on how many pages I felt comfortable reading per day (while assuming I’d miss a week per month thereabouts). So I picked 7,500 pages over a revised yearly date count of 280 days. Comes just shy of 27 pages a day. I can pick any number of books as long as I don’t exceed 7,500 pages.

This is what I landed on.

Nice variety. Some of those are really good too. I like the idea of a certain number of pages per day vs. a certain number of books. But if you miss a day, then will you read 54 pages the next day?

I built in 7 days a month to miss for if/when other things get in the way and I can’t read that day. That’s why I averaged my daily page count over 280 days instead of 365. I’m still going to try to read every day regardless.
