2025 Reading Challenge discussion

This year, I challenged myself to read 40 books and I am a third of the way through book 40 so I should hit my target. Looking back, I only read one book in January, two in April, one in August, two in October and two in December, so there is scope for improvement.

Next year I am aiming for 50, which is less than one book per week, so it shouldn't be too difficult. However, of those 50 books, at least five must be titles from the BBC Book List Challenge.

Wish me luck!

I have now read thirteen books towards my target of 50, although I have shelved my plan to read books from the BBC To Be Read list.
The main thing is that I am ahead of schedule so that if I have a period when I can't concentrate, I won't get so far behind that I can't achieve my goal.
