First of all, I want to slow down and re-read several favorite books. (Wind in the Willows, Persuasion, etc.) I don't do this enough because I'm always anxiously pursuing my next book. I don't want to ANXIOUSLY read anything this year.
Secondly, I want to continue the Fairacre series by Miss Read. (more unhurried reading)
Thirdly, I want to read 10 literary classics. Not too daunting considering that I have several of them in audio book form. These are books that feed my soul and I need to make them a priority. (Anna Karenina and Silas Marner are two titles I hope to read.)
Fourthly, I want to always have a Christian classic on hand to read for a few minutes after my daily Bible reading. (Andrew Murray, A.W. Tozer, etc.)
What about you? Any goals for the year? How did you meet last year's goals?
Blessings,

I read (or rather, listened to) Anna Karenina last year for the first time. I'd love to reread Persuasion, Jane Eyre, and others.
My goals for the year are here: https://barbarah.wordpress.com/2020/01/09/reading-plans-for-2020/
Last year I fell one book short of what I was planning to read. I could have gotten it in during December, but I like to read Christmas books then. But I read or listened to 76 books all together last year, so I am happy.
I feel the same way re 'anxious reading.' I haven't made any lists yet but I have some goals in mind but I do want to be more intentional - & not just in my reading! I bought a couple of new Tozer titles I'd like to read this year. He is so refreshing.
