Wrap Up MBS 2022 Reading GOALS

WRAP UP
MBS (Martha's Bookshelf) 2022 Reading GOALS

I have only signed up for one actual goal (Goodreads) and one actual challenge (Audiobook). The rest are just my own set goals. 
I didn't meet all goals but I was happy with those completed and overall happy with the reading year. I still would like to find a way to read more ebooks.

GOODREADS Goal: 125
COMPLETE - I exceeded the Goodreads Goal finishing 145.

TBR Goal: 90 Audio, ebook or print.
COMPLETE - TBR exceeded at 111 total.

AUDIOBOOK Goal: 100
I am joining the 2022 Audiobook Challenge hosted by Caffeinated Reviewer.
I have chosen the highest level - The 100 Club (Audiobook Addict) 100+
COMPLETE - I ended up reading almost all Audio for the year finishing 135.

NETGALLEY Goal: 10
I am having trouble with the ebooks so I will shoot for at least 10 in either children’s titles or audios. Most of these will be new since I only have 4 on the TBR shelf, one of which is a third read.
COMPLETE - NetGalley exceeded with 14.

AUTHOR Goal: 10
I did 14 in 2021 so I should be able to do 10. My concern is the slowness I have for ebooks so I have to hope for audios. I have two to start the year.
Not Completed - I only did 3. I just didn't get through the ebooks this year. I'd be glad to listen to audio!

NONFICTION Goal: 12
I like including this to get in nonfiction. Most likely the books will be TBR audiobooks.
Not Completed - I only finished 11.

EBOOKS or PRINT Goal: 12
I only did 10 (of 24) in 2021 so I want to push to at least one per month. Not necessarily have to be read one per month but that would be nice.
Not Completed - I got to 10 with four of those being children's books. As noted above, I ended up shifting to Audiobooks.

SEASONS Goal: 4
I will do this again for Winter, Spring, Summer, and Autumn (maybe Fall). I have toyed with monthly goal in prior years, but it just didn’t work to match the month. I could try reading the months whenever… I’ll think about that.
COMPLETE

SERIES Goal: 75
Considering I read 97 series in 2021 (32 continuing + 65 new) I expect to do well with this again.
COMPLETE - I read 99 series; 34 continuing and 65 new to me.

ALPHABET CHALLENGE #1: My first choice is AUDIO SERIES which I so enjoy! Most will be TBR before 2022. Part of my decisions will be choosing between a series I am familiar with or one I want to start!
COMPLETE but I had to use an X22 Podcast for X.

ALPHABET CHALLENGE #2
: This will be a variety Mixed Media - Audio, NetGalley, eBook and Print. I will try for single titles rather than series in this challenge, but not guaranteed. Most will be TBR before 2022.
The Alphabet goals help me pick from my overflowing shelves. :-)
All done except X.

YouVersion Bible App Goal: Bible through the year and 10 additional plans.
I finished my Bible (5th year in a row) but only did 5 additional plans.

Colors – No goal. This wasn’t as easy as I hoped so I am not setting this one up this year. I may just keep track to see how it goes.
