I want to read less in 2025

In 2022 I set my first-ever Goodreads challenge. 12 books. I ended up reading 11.

In 2023 I set the same goal of 12 books. I read 26.

In 2024 I upped the stakes based on 2023’s success. 25 books. I read 54.

If I keep that momentum up, I should be reading 100 books this year. But I don’t want to. In fact, I’m hoping to read fewer books in 2025.
