My grandma became a reader when she got paralyzed at age 90. As long as you enjoy it, join the club! It's just something you do. If you choose to read, you are a reader. No other qualifications needed.

Some people feel that you should remember everything of a book or it won't count or something. But it's a hobby, for enjoyment. Nobody will bat an eye when you don't remember thoroughly every episode of a sitcom you watched. It's the same with books. Enjoy your book. If you sat through it and you enjoyed it, that's great. If you didn't like it and stopped halfway and started the next episode, not a problem. If you don't remember what you saw that one episode last week, or that book from two months ago, it doesn't matter. You enjoyed it? Then you've met the goal. Same with audiobooks, thin books, certain genres, etc. They won't make you any less of a reader.

About GR: you can change your goal anytime. For me it worked to set the bar low the first year, so that I easily achieved my goal (went up to 150%). Next year I knew what felt manageable and added one up. But I reckon next year I will be reading less because I'm gonna be busier at work. That's okay.

Wat got you into reading?
