Here are a few random reading stats from 2016:

Books Finished:  117
Pages Read: 38,483
Average # of Pages per Book: 329

I read authors born in 19 different countries:  1. USA - 64,  2. England - 20, 3. Wales - 6, 4. Russia - 4 and 5. France - 3

I read authors born in 23 different US States: 1. New York - 8, 2. Texas - 5 and 3. Missouri, Georgia, Massachusetts and Minnesota - 4

I read books with titles starting with 21 different letters. I did not read books starting with N, V, X, Y or Z.

I read authors with last names starting with 18 different letters.  I did not read I, J, K O, Q, U, V and X

Since I've started tracking the number of books (2005) I have read 925 which means an average of 77 per year.   Since I've started tracking the # of pages (2008) I have  read 269,411 pages at an average or 29,935 a year and 348 per book.

Next years goal for books read will be 100.   A higher target, but, I have now hit over 100 two years in a row.  This years goal was 66.

Happy New Year.
