12 but there are loads of books I put on hold halfway through or further. I started getting more comfortable dropping books, and while it's made my reading frequency go way up, I still feel a need to finish more.

75. Pretty content with my reading. Got through all of Ibsen's works, which, granted, are usually not very long and thus drive up the nr. Got through Jane Eyre, Titus Groan, the three musketeers, autobiography of malcolm x, and The Red and the Black, so content with that
