Every year one of my goals is to read as many books as I will have candles on my cake that year. I do pretty good. Most years I go over, some years I have barely made it, and I can only think of one year I didn't make it. I have been doing this goal for many, many years. I try to read at least 5 non-fiction books a year. They are normally not my favorite. I just love fiction, but I did get the 5 non-fiction in this year. These are not in any certain order, just in the order I read them through the year.
