2015 Reading Goals

Hey all! My name is Elizabeth, I'm 17, and I love to read. I'm new to the blog-verse so I thought I'd start off with my 2015 bookish goals that I'm going to try and hit.
1)      Read  75  books.
My goal for 2014 had been to read 125 books and I surpassed that by reading 139 but for 2015, I decided to lower it to 75. I found myself stressing out about hitting 125 books last year and I didn't want for my goal to feel like a job that I HAD to complete. Also, I'm starting college college next month so I feel like that is going to take up a lot of my time as well.
2)      Read all of Rick Riordan’s books.
*sigh* I made this same goal for myself in 2014 and I did not complete it. I only ended up reading the first three books of the Hero's of Olympus series but I am definitely going to complete this goal this year (hopefully).
3)      Finish the Harry Potter series.
Once again, I made this goal for myself in 2014 but did not complete it. I know what you're thinking, who HASN'T read all of the Harry Potter books? The answer would be me (my mom wouldn't let me read them when I was younger).
4)      Read 2 classics
I'm not that big on classics, but I really want to read a couple this year. I only read 2 in 2014, one of which I hated (The Hobbit) and one which I loved (Jane Eyre).
5)      Read 10 adult books.
Pretty much the only thing I read is young adult but I occasionally partake in the adult genre. I don't read enough of them though so I'm hoping to change that in 2015!
6)      Get tbr down to 100 books
My tbr sits around 200 right now and that's a little crazy so I've made it a priority to make a big dent into it.
7)      Finish 12 series.
I have about 10 unread series on my shelf where I only have one book left in the series/trilogy so I feel like I might finish this challenge with flying colors!
