I think I need to change this goal

Last year I stopped trying to force myself to read nonfiction books - it felt like work and I couldn’t force myself to finish 12 a year (1 a month sounds reasonable right? 🫠)

In August 2023 - I started reading fiction, specifically thrillers, cop dramas, etc. to my surprise I read 109 books 🤯

I set my 2024 goal at 150 assuming that I could manage that while working - well I’ve clearly underestimated my own abilities!

Can I finish 150 by the end of July ?!

Should I post a montage of what I’ve read so far?

Setting reading goals can be both exciting and daunting. Many readers find that a shift in genre can help reignite their passion for books. For instance, transitioning from nonfiction to thrillers may tap into a different enthusiasm, often leading to unexpected insights and enjoyment. Statistics show that fiction reading can enhance empathy and understanding. As you pursue ambitious reading goals for 2024, consider tracking your progress with monthly check-ins or visual montages. Sharing your reading journey on social media can also motivate you and your followers alike. Engaging with book communities, whether online or offline, can enrich your reading experience. This could lead to new recommendations, discussions, and even friendships built around a shared love for books. Explore various platforms and hashtags, such as #2024readinggoals and #thrillers, to connect with others who have similar interests. By actively participating in this community, you can exchange ideas, discover new authors, and celebrate milestones together in your reading adventure.
