I have several goals for February, some of which overlap

• read/ return all the borrowed (library) ebooks - 6 books, two in progress
• be on track with my reading goals as per recording things at storygraph (up to date on number of books, behind on number of pages)
• have read at least one of the books acquired in 2025; stretch goal of four (some are quite small, a dedicated day of reading would be three easily)
• finish Beowulf (Mariana Headley translation), which I've got quite a way through multiple times, and then forgotten about
• get currently reading down under 15 (I think it is at 20)

Stretch goals

• read something that fits one of the storygraph challenges that I've signed up for
• currently reading under 10 (abandoning things will be required)
• look at the 'paused' books on storygraph and see if I can get that number down as well (there are 35, some are library holds because I didn't finish them in time and I couldn't renew)
• find at least one 'likely to be nominated for a Hugo' book to read ahead of the short list being released (I am not attempting to do nominations this year, I have read almost nothing)

This looks like a lot, but if I do less doomscrolling, I'll get lots read :)
