## About
The Reading Goal Planner answers two questions. When will I finish the book I am reading, if I read a set number of pages a day? And how many pages and minutes do I need each day to reach a yearly reading goal? Enter the pages in the book, your daily pages and reading speed, and the number of books you want to read in a year, and it gives dates and daily targets.

## How to use
1. Enter the date you start, or leave it blank for today.
2. Enter the pages in your book, how many pages you read a day and your reading speed.
3. Enter a yearly goal in books and the average number of pages.
4. Read your finish date and the daily reading needed to reach your goal.
