This is a great idea. I've read >100 books over each of the past 5 years (2022: 121, 2021: 183, 172, 193, 208). My goal is 156 this year. (Tracking via Goodreads). Probably 90% of mine are audiobooks, otherwise kindle, and only rarely paper books, but it's mostly replaced music, TV, movies, and other non-interactive online media. I realized reading only 10-20 books per year, I'd never get to even 1% of the books I'd want to read in my lifetime, but there's no TV show I'd be unhappy not having watched 10 years later.
