Here we are, a month into 2016, and I have not forgotten about my Reading Challenges for the year!
Let’s see where we stand. First up…
I Love Libraries Challenge
hosted by Bea’s Book Nook
Goal: Middle Grades (18 books)
End of January Progress: 17% (target pace: 8%)
- Big Magic: Creative Living Beyond Fear by Elizabeth Gilbert
- Challenger Deep by Neal Shusterman
- In the Heart of the Sea: The Tragedy of the Whaleship Essex by Nathaniel Philbrick
One month in, and I’ve read three library books. I haven’t managed to post a single review for any of them (we’ll come back to that later), but it’s still not a bad start.
Moving on to…
Mt. TBR Challenge
hosted by My Reader’s Block
Goal: Pike’s Peak (12 books)
End of January Progress: 8% (target pace: 8%)
- The Seven-Per-Cent Solution: Being a Reprint from the Reminiscences of John H. Watson M.D. by Nicholas Meyer
Right on target with one book from Mt. TBR. I’d kind of like to get ahead of this one, though, to be honest.
Okay, now for the embarrassing confessions.
2016 Netgalley/Edelweiss Challenge
hosted by Falling For YA
Goal: Bronze Level (10 books)
End of January Progress: 0% (target pace: 8%)
Oh, dear. I did start a book from NetGalley. Did I finish it? No. Is my Nook sitting on my nightstand, looking sad and neglected? Yes.
2016 Review Writing Challenge
hosted by DelightedReader.com
Goal: 50 Reviews
End of January Progress: 0% (target pace: 8%)
No reviews yet. I really have no excuse, either. That image is pretty spot-on.
So, how’s your 2016 reading going?
