Last year I only got around to 209 books, so I'm feeling pretty good about 240, although I'm constantly aiming for 300 and missing horribly. This year was a good one in general. My husband is in a job that he enjoys and working on his first degree. I'm closing in on the end of my Masters' degree and I welcomed a new niece and cousin this past year into our ever-growing family.
As for books, I had some I loved and some.. not so much. I even had a couple DNF or rather skip to the end type of reads to get it over with.

Great job! I haven’t read any of your 5 star standout books, I’ll have to look those up
Oooh, I just picked up Marie Lu’s Legend, so I can’t wait to start that this year if it stood out to you.
Good luck for this year!
Last year you “only got 204?” Well, I think that 209 is already a lot of books, so 240 is a great amount! I hope you can achieve your 300 goal this year
