    Every year I aim to read more books but don't tend to keep up. Curious how many books on average others in this community read!

    Honestly the same, then I started to think why do I want to read? 2 parts really, knowledge and peace; I'll try to solve one at a time, for the knowledge part I use Blinkist for that. and I'm yet to figure out peace. How many are you trying to read this year my boy?

    @supnim I'm hoping to read at least 12, one for each month.

    I read (or listen to) one book a month on average. Gives me enough time to process and take action.

    Not too many like 4. But I definitely going to double this number by the end of the year!

    I read them seasonally. When I'm in the mood, I can read 3 books in a row over a few months. Most of my reading comes from newsletters and lots of marketing articles. In fact, I'd say reading 10+ articles already feels like a book! Most importantly, note the new things from the books you read! Our memory store book insights only if they are re-read. That's why you should at least track the findings in Notion-ish apps - you can easily retrieve the info with the search button!
    My new year resolution is to read at least 5 books. Haven't started yet 😅
