How about I just read and see how many I finish? Simple. I'm not doing a goal on Goodreads either. No buying unless some favorite authors have a book out or I want to continue a series. Random sales are a no-no.
Books read: Turn of the Key by Ruth Ware The Institute by Stephen King Polaris Rising by Jesse Mihalik Star Trek Picard: The Last Best Hope by Una McCormack Green Mountain Road and Selected Stories by Leif Gregerson Angel's Blood by Nalini Singh Restless Hearts by B.J. Daniels Star Trek: The Higher Frontier by Christopher L. Bennett Force of Nature by Jane Harper Aurora Blazing by Jesse Mihalik Heartbreaker by B.J. Daniels Beartown by Fredrick Bachman Chaos Reigning by Jesse Mihalik Her Pretty Face by Robyn Harding Star Trek: TNG Balance of Power by Dafydd ab Hugh Star Trek Voyager: Chrysalis by David Niall Wilson Peace Talks by Jim Butcher Star Trek More Beautiful Than Death by David Mack The Vanishing by Jane Anne Krentz The End of Her by Shari Lapena Archangel's Kiss by Nahlini Singh.

Place holder. Not sure I'll attempt this again, given how appallingly I failed this year, but hope springs eternal and all that.

My goal next year is to just read. I do not care how many books I read, just that I enjoy them.
