My 2015 Bookish Resolutions

Here are the bookish resolutions that I hope to achieve in 2015:

1. Read 30 books
This has been my goal for the past two years and I've not reached it yet *shakes fist at University textbooks* but hopefully 2015 will be the year!
2. To not buy anymore books this year (other than a few exceptions)
Despite having another shelf added only a few months ago I'm already running out of storage space for my books! And as over 40 of the books on my shelf are unread I want to tackle some of them first this year before I start buying books again. However I will allow myself a few exceptions such as replacing the rest of my paperback Austens with Penguin's oh-so-gorgeous clothbound editions.
3. Finish at least 3 series that I've already started
SO. MANY. Vampire Academy, the Lux series, A Song of Ice and Fire, The Mortal Instruments, Divergent, If I Stay, The Inheritance Cycle to name a few...
4. Read more classics
I've only actually finished two classics - Pride and Prejudice and Alice in Wonderland so I would like to read a few more this year - particularly Austen, Gaskell & The Brontës.
5. Complete The Lord of the Rings
I've previously read the first half of The Fellowship of the Ring and really enjoyed it but unfortunately I had to abandon it for University. I picked up a one volume version of all three books in a vintage shop the other day so I'd like to finally finish it this year.

What are your bookish resolutions? How many books are you aiming to read in 2015?
