I went a bit nuts this year with challenges; I hope I can accomplish them all. The only one I'm not tracking is my goodreads reading challenge; all the rest I'll include in my monthly wrap up post. This month I did a personal challenge (I'm not tracking) to read mostly books that I won or was gifted but I did sneak in a few review books and other books.
Last month I participated in the month long Clean Sweep ARC Challenge co-hosted by The Caffeinated Reviewer and Angela's Anxious Life. Despite one DNF, I actually exceeded the goal I set for myself. :)
Grab a drink, get comfy, and get ready!

Such great challenges! I bet it's a lot of fun to see some of them completed. Have fun reading the rest of those books!
ReplyDeleteWow, you did great! Good work!
ReplyDeleteSo many interesting titles! Jeffrey Archer is one of my favorite authors. Hope you enjoy reading him as much as I do!
ReplyDeleteRead on!
:)
Doing great! I've got to look mine over soon and get a move on. Can't believe the year is already half over!
ReplyDeleteGood going!
ReplyDeleteGreat job, you're on a roll!
ReplyDeleteI signed up for Clean Sweep Arc Challenge but I was really a non-participant. I was still in a bit of reading funk when the challenge started and I only read 3 review books last month. My goal had been 9. OOPs! Well you did amazing, though! Congrats Bea :)
ReplyDeleteYou are the challenge queen!! look at how many you are participating in!! Awesome job chica :)
ReplyDeleteI can only really do one at a time or they get to be too much for me to keep track of.
You did fantastic on the Clean Sweep Challenge, and I'm totally impressed with your series-finishing prowess. :-)
ReplyDeleteDo you have a trick for keeping track of all the challenges? That's always a struggle for me.
