Happy New Year! Which means it's time for another Reading Challenge thread to commence.

It's a great way to keep track of what you've been reading throughout the year (as well as find out what everyone else has been reading!) and try to challenge yourself to read a few more books. You can set any target you choose, and include any reading material you wish (manga, magazines, fanfiction, etc).

To get involved, start a post in this thread (one post per person), and record the books you've read, are currently reading, and want to read. This post can then be edited using the button in the top right hand corner of the post.

I'll aim for 50 again this year. I just made it last year thanks to all the manga I managed to consume in an attempt to procrastinate. Then again, I did end up reading 100+ journal articles last year, but they weren't for my own enjoyment.

1. The Lord of the Rings - The Two Towers - J.R.R. Tolkien*
2. The Lord of the Rings - The Return of the King - J.R.R. Tolkien*
3. The Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy - Douglas Adams*
4. The Restaurant at the End of the Universe - Douglas Adams*
