There are only three, but they're major ones:
Finally overcoming that damn reader's block.
I read so little this year - so little mysteries that is, for I read a lot of comics, the only things not falling from my hands - that for the first time in memory I can't compile a Top 10 - and naming a best book of the year would be meaningless given the low number of candidates*. I sincerely hope for 2012 heralding a return to form.
Blogging on a more regular basis.
Obviously my reader's block didn't help me posting more often. But then it's a historical/theoretical blog, not a journal of my reads, so that excuse doesn't (quite) hold water. In 2012 I'll try to achieve a post at least every two weeks, come what may.
Poster davantage en français.
Je suis français et, à en croire les statistiques de ce blog, un certain nombre de mes lecteurs le sont également. Il serait donc logique que je m'exprime davantage dans notre belle langue. C'est donc mon troisième objectif pour la nouvelle année.
Easier said than done, but who knows...
* Still, if I was to name the best mystery I read this year, the honour would go to Albert Harding's "Death on Ravens' Scar". I know nothing of this author and Internet seems not to know much either, but it's an excellent book with a very good plot and equally good setting and characterization. Too bad Harding apparently never wrote anything else.

Xavier,
I wish you all the best for 2012 and hopefully it will be the year that your reading block will stop weighing you down.
Just out of curiosity, were there any Detective Conan/Case Closed volumes among the comic books you read this year?
Obviously I can't help much with your reader's block but am looking forward to reading your "more posts next year".
