Reply to Do you guys create monthly tbr’s? by thegayboy__

i do an 'up next' list. i choose 5-10 books from my massive TBR and load them to my tablet as the next ones i will be choosing from. it does make the selection process less overwhelming and allows me to finally get to those books that have been on my list for years.

Reply to When do you consider a book 'read'? by Penrod_Pooch

my annual goal is both books and pages. so i count the short story collection as read, even if i did not read all of the stories, but i mark the page amount as a % of the stories read. so if i read 12 of 20 stories and the whole book is 700 pages. i 700/20*12 and list that number.

counting pages keeps me from choosing short books just to meet the goal.

but ultimately it is up to you and what you feel comfortable doing.

You need to offer your own opinion on which you prefer and why. If you don't have an answer and are asking about a specific book, you should ask in our recommendation thread. If you don't want to offer your own opinion you can use the search to find older threads on the same topic and read others' responses there.
