What are your New Years' Resolutions for this year?

Any people making "Reading Resolutions" (i.e, a goal to reach a certain amount of books, a goal to focus on a certain genre of books, etc.)?

If so, I'd like to hear about them! Leave a comment!

1) Finish the 2010 Paranormal Challenge, but I also expanded it so hopefully that will help me to reach my next goal...

2) Finish 100 books this year.  I usually read about 85-90 and I want to reach 100.

3) To finally get around to reading the Twilight series!  I feel like I'm the last person on earth to read it :)

4) Read more non-paranormals that have been sitting on my shelf.

I'm planning on reading more fantasy  because it's a genre I really like but hardly get around to reading. Also, I want to read a few classics. I don't really have a "goal number" of books, but I am going to start keeping track of all the books I read.

 I plan to get all of Nora Roberts books and even J.D Robb books and already read one this year and today is just the 1st.

I plan to read the rest of the Stephen Donaldson series (Thomas Covenant) that I started last year.

Goal: Get at least 60 kids books for my classroom when I get a job next year, so I got 6 or 7 months.

 

Good Luck on all of your resolutions!

I've changed my mind. I think I will set a goal  number for this year. 100!

My resolution this year:  Attempt to read 100 books this year - fell way short last year :/  Also, I'm going to try and read the mountain of books I already have on my shelves without buying any new ones, with the exception of 2 books my favorite authors are releasing this year.  :)
