I did really well in buying new releases to fit the '17 in 2017', but didn't do so well in reading them all. This year I am going to start with 10, then expand from there.'10 New Releases in 2018':
(view spoiler)
I also prefer starting with 12 books and expend later to the year number as I usually read more new releases at mid-year than at the beginning. I don't like when my progress is slow so with less books at first, it seems more manageable.
