2025 Reading Challenges Update #9

We are very rapidly approaching the end of the year and I’m…not as far on the reading challenges as I would like, at this stage. Some I’m still hopeful about, but I definitely think for next year I’m going to reduce the amount I’m doing, maybe just by one, though I’m still looking at aContinueContinue reading “2025 Reading Challenges Update #9”

2025 Reading Challenges Update #8

Unlike last month, I’m actually getting to this fairly late – other stuff has taken over recently, so I haven’t been able to work on the blog as much as I would like. I have been consistently reading, but slower with the audiobook. And it’s getting to the point where I’m starting to worry aboutContinueContinue reading “2025 Reading Challenges Update #8”

2025 Reading Challenges Update #7

For various reasons, I’m writing this up relatively early – closer to the middle of July than the end. It’s partly because of some upcoming stuff that’s going to take me away from my laptop and this blog for a few days, so I’m getting as much done ‘in advance’ as I can. I actuallyContinueContinue reading “2025 Reading Challenges Update #7”

2025 Reading Challenges Update #6

We’re over halfway through the year, so ideally I should be over halfway through my reading challenges, though it hasn’t quite worked out like that (yet). I’m hoping the next two months or so see me completing a couple, so I can focus on the bigger ones. For next year, I’m definitely going to doContinueContinue reading “2025 Reading Challenges Update #6”

2025 Reading Challenges Update #5

I’m as intrigued as always to see how I’ve done with these challenges over the last month, however I should note I’ve made attempts more recently to slow down my reading. I’ve fallen more behind on my reviews than I would like, so I’m trying to give myself a bit more time right now. AndContinueContinue reading “2025 Reading Challenges Update #5”

2025 Reading Challenges Update #4

More reading challenges updates! I feel like this was a good month for reading, but that might have come to a bit of a standstill now thanks to some issues with my Kindle! At this point, I’m just really hoping I haven’t now lost the arcs I had on there. But it does mean I’llContinueContinue reading “2025 Reading Challenges Update #4”

2025 Reading Challenges Update #3

How did March go for you? I have to admit, I’m kind of excited by the fact it’s April. The weather is getting better and there are a few good things on my personal horizon that should make life a bit easier! I feel like I read quite a lot over March, too. One weekendContinueContinue reading “2025 Reading Challenges Update #3”

2025 Reading Challenges Update #2

This year feels like a weird one already – on the one hand, I can’t believe it’s March. On the other…it’s only March? Things feel very up and down, but all I can do right now is keep pushing forward. And books are such a great source of joy and escape in difficult times. 2025ContinueContinue reading “2025 Reading Challenges Update #2”

2025 Reading Challenges Update #1

We did it! We made it through January! Phew – some days it really felt like we’d never get there. How did your January go? Did you read as much as you would have liked? I’m not where I’d want to be reading-wise, but that’s okay – there was quite a lot going on inContinueContinue reading “2025 Reading Challenges Update #1”

2024 Reading Challenges Update #12

Here we are with my final update for the 2024 Reading Challenges. I…didn’t do as well at these as I would have liked, but I’m still somewhat proud of my progress. I did manage to complete two of the challenges – though one was short, and the other was the Musicals challenge I created myself.ContinueContinue reading “2024 Reading Challenges Update #12”
