How I did it: I kept a running list of the books I read each month.  I would total them up every couple of months to keep on track.  I also made time for reading.  I thought I never had a lot of time until I realized how much of it was spent on Facebook and watching movies and even driving.  I got audio books from my library and listened to them on my commutes.  If your commute is long, this is a good option. 

Lessons & tips: Keep organized by writing down each book's title and author when you are finished.  Keep the list in the same place, such as on your computer or online or on your bookshelf.  Make a list of books you would like to read and seek them out from the library, bookstore, and friends. Write down what you did and did not like about the book, if you would like, so you will remember to pick that author up again or to try a similar book.
