Alexandra (alexandrans) | 69 comments So for the past few years I've been doing the "50 books a year" challenge, but it's prevented me from reading longer novels. Also, I tend to get library books and then give them priority over owned books, because they have due dates. So, my goal this year - in lieu of a set number of books - is to read most, if not all of the books I already own, but haven't got around to reading (there's quite a few), and the books I've started but for whatever reason haven't finished. Also, to finish the series I've already started but haven't completed. I'm fairly sure, having written out the list, that I won't get through all of them, but hopefully I'll get through the bulk and open up my schedule for next year to work on that rather large TBR list. So, in no particular order:
