In 2025 I made it my goal to read as much as possible; I set my goal to 12 books for the year. And while that was perfectly attainable, the business of the year got the best of me (graduating college, moving home, starting a new job). Because of this I was only able to read eight. This was still amazing for me considering I hadn't read this many books in a long, long time. It's not a life changing feat but it is solid start to a good habit.
