Got eleven books from the library today. They are all poetry books. Most are due in three weeks but two are due in two weeks.
Would be great to finish them all in two weeks otherwise I’d have to make two library trips, if those two books won’t renew automatically. I think it’s doable so long as I make sure to read every day.
Once I finish these books I’ll be at 21 books read for 2025. My goal is 77, though I’m hoping for at least 80.

@lilacskies momentum, that’s the word I was looking for lol; not trajectory.

That is fabulous! Eleven poetry book looks a fantastic haul! Not many would have done that. I am sure on that part. It is also amazing you have a solid reading plan to stay on track with your goal. 21 books already are impressive and going for 80 is even better. I for one would be interested to try some book reading myself. I may not go for 80 books for now. Perhaps could think of such a target on the long run. Well, wish you a lot of enjoyable reading and hope the poetry inspiring you. Take care!

It's just the second month and with your kind of determination and speed, you will achieve your reading goals by mid year. That's great 
. I am not keeping any goal. Just doing some bit of reading whenever I get the time.

I doubt I will reach my goal by the middle of the year. But never know.

That’s an awesome haul! Poetry books can be such a refreshing change of pace—quick to read but full of depth. Sounds like a solid plan to finish them in two weeks, especially if you make a little time each day. And 21 books already? You’re off to an amazing start for 2025! Hope you find some new favorites in this batch.
