Today #insixwords: Crazy Jack and Feisty Alexia = Fun!
Mini Challenges: None Today
I'm very happy with my showing for this Bout of Books Readathon. I knew I wouldn't be able to accomplish as much as last time (full time job), but I think 7 1/2 books and over 1900 pages is quite a respectable accomplishment. Plus I had fun with a few mini challenges. And finally, I knocked out two of my 2011 Reading Challenges. At this rate, I just might reach my reading challenge goals this year. My one failing this time was the Net Galley book. I just didn't get around to it. I still have a fondness for physical books that the iPad just can't shake. One of these days I will just have to take the iPad to work. Then I would be forced to use it... possibility. Overall, I enjoyed this readathon for the second time and look forward to the next one!
My goals:
- Read at least 5 books (7.5 done) √
- Read at least 1 Net Galley book (TBD)
- Review all books read (7 done) √
- Participate in at least 2 mini challenges (3 done) √
- Complete at least 1 reading challenge — Page to Screen Challenge completed! Vampire Challenge completed! √
- Read at least 2 hours a day (averaged 2.18 hours a day) √
