No set goal, other than more than in 2019...a year in which I didn't finish a book.

House of Leaves by Mark Z. Danielewski absolutely killed me from September of 2018 until a couple weeks ago. Lost interest in the book, started watching more shows on Netflix and whatnot, and read a bunch of D&D rule books.
