About the Reading Challenge Calculator

Reading challenges (like Goodreads' yearly goal) are easiest to stay on top of when you know your current pace and what it takes each week to catch up or stay ahead.

Formula: Projected Total = (Books Completed ÷ Days Elapsed) × 365; Books per Week Needed = (Goal − Books Completed) ÷ Days Remaining × 7

If your projected total already exceeds your goal, you're ahead of pace; if the required weekly rate feels unrealistic, it may be time to pick up some shorter books.
