So how many books do I really need to read in 2013

So as you have probably noticed I have signed up for every reading challenge under the sun. Yes this is my first year participating in reading challenges, but it definetly won't be my last. I'm totally a reading challenge addict now. I saw a post like this on Book Dragon's lair's blog for 2012 so I thought I would see how many books I actually need to read in 2013.

Thank goodness every challenge I have entered will allow me to crossover books so far I have entered 14 challenges and I know I will enter more mini challenges throughout the year.

A-Z challenge: 26 books
Library Challenge: 36 books
Book to Movie Challenge: 12 books

The total comes out to 280 books since my plan is to read 50 book in 2013 there is no way I could complete all these challenges without crossovers.

How many books do you actually need to read in 2013?

Thanks for reading
