Some (but not all) of my bookish goals this year:

📚 Read 52 books (so, at least a book a week, and I've already hit this goal, but I just didn't want the pressure of setting it higher and feeling like I *had* to read 100+ books like I've done in the past)

📚 Read more from my physical tbr

📚 Give myself permission to DNF (*still* working on this one, if I'm being completely honest)

All that said, my planner is basically just a glorified TBR tracker at this point. 📝😅

Q O T D:

What are your bookish goals for the year?

As we plan for 2025-2026, establishing clear bookish goals can lead to a rewarding reading journey. Try setting a specific reading target, like 52 books in a year, which breaks down to one book per week, alleviating the pressure of overwhelming goals. It's also a great idea to focus on reading from your physical TBR (to-be-read) pile, allowing you to engage with books you own and rediscover your favorites. Additionally, consider giving yourself permission to DNF (Did Not Finish) books that aren't resonating with you. This practice can free up time for titles that do capture your interest, making your reading more enjoyable and fulfilling. Think of your planner as a tool to track these goals, allowing you to visualize and celebrate your achievements along the way. Sharing these goals in forums or communities can inspire others and keep you accountable. So, what are your bookish goals for 2025-2026? Let’s motivate each other!

A goal with no clock behind it is just a soft whisper in the wind—sounds good, but disappears fast. You could hold that vision tight, but without a timestamp, it fades like old graffiti on brick.
