Never done this before. I've maybe read 50 books in my entire life(I'm 20), but I've been wanting to get into books for a while now and this is the perfect excuse. I'll probably fail miserably to reach 50 on that front but getting into reading books will feel like a victory. Movies will be doable since I've missed out on a lot of classics.

Also I'm counting on you guys to recommend me books! I don't know shit about what books I should be going for.

Pretty certain I'll get the movies done with months to spare. But the book part will be a bit of a challenge, which is why I'm IN.

I just checked and I only managed 10 books this year... I'll see if I can beat that. The problem is I don't set time to read, only do it in bed and I leave that too late as it is.

If anyone's looking for recommendations the best books I read this year were Wolf Hall and Bring Up The Bodies by Hilary Mantel. Normally I try and avoid historical fiction because I think a lot of the time writers try too hard to get their made up character involved in actual events, but this was very believable in a very interesting part of history.

I will probably fail badly as I'm an incredibly slow reader and sometimes will take breaks that last days or weeks. But it may help me read a bit more so I'll give it a shot.

You know what, I like the 50 movies idea, but the 50 books idea seems very tough unless you: a) read non-stop, and/or b) purposefully avoid certain books.

I sort of want to hop in on the 50 movies portion because I have a humongous backlog of Netflix and on paper (of critically/popularly-acclaimed movies I've never seen). But my original personal goal for 2014 for books was going to be just 1 per month. :|

Do documentaries count as movies? Like Chasing Ice?

Yup of course. It's in my 2013 list :)

Mine, too. Excellent choice. Documentaries rule and absolutely count for this. Now go watch everything Werner Herzog every directed!

I can confirm that neither of those caveats is true.

I'm going to give it a shot! Probably going to front-load stuff while I'm just substitute teaching as I will (hopefully) have a full time teaching gig by the time the next school year starts.

Do graphic novels count? They are over 100 pages usually

What is the rule on comics? - They’re awesome! This was probably the most frequently discussed rule last year. Bottom line: use your judgment. Individual comics are definitely OUT, but some people chose to count trade paperbacks (containing 5-6 issues) as a book. I feel those are too short to count as a book since they take 20-30 minutes to read, but don’t let my opinion shape the rules you set for yourself. A safe bet would be to count a completed series as a book. For example, I counted the full Rick Remender run of Uncanny X-Force (35 total issues) as a book. Others might not count that. Sue me.

Per the OP.

I'm not sure I'll try this again.

Reading 50 books in a year takes a lot out of you.

Just channel your inner Cyan or Mumei, then you'll read too many books and have to mortgage your house to fund your book reading madness.

This will be the year I finally read the LotR books.

I'll be participating. I'll probably limp my way to 50 movies for the previous year before year's end.
