It's that time of the month where I try to be diligent and give you an update about the status of my reading challenges I was brave foolish enough to take. Fingers crossed I'm on track:
Hosted by Jenese at Reader's Confession
My Goal was to read books from author's whose works I haven't tried yet. Epic fail! I wish I could've done better. Here's the update:

- Shadow Bound by Erin Kellison
- Hellforged by Nancy Holzner

3. Anabelle Lee by Stacey Jay (3 books)

The goal is to read at least 12 Young Adult or Middle Grade books by either debut authors or authors who are writing for YA-MG readers for the first time by January 31, 2014. I'm in a YA funk so I'm in the bare essentials mark.
Goal: 12 books

Have you signed up for any challenges?
How are you doing so far?
You are making my head spin! How many books did you read in just one month? I am such a sloooowwwww reader. :(
ReplyDeleteHaha! Don't worry my head is spinning too
DeleteWow, you did pretty awesome overall! Good job Lady.
ReplyDeleteThanks Ali, I plan to keep up this pace
DeleteYou did pretty good, Braine! ^_^ Congrats! *looks at my list* *cough* uuhh.. yeaaah, you did GREAT! lol.
ReplyDeleteAna♥
Haha thanks! I actually failed one and did OK with the other. I hope I can keep up this pace.
DeleteYou've taken on some difficult challenges, but it looks like you're doing good. I bit off a few this year too, but all of them are slightly inter-connected so most of the books will work for more than one challenge. I'm on track too.
ReplyDeleteGood Luck!
Ha! If you look closely it goes well with the other so I can hit two stones or more with one read hehehe.
DeleteI signed up for the 2013 Immortal Challenge
ReplyDeleteI am currently reading my first book for this. out of 16
Also signed up for 2013 TBR pile challenge. Where you try to read all the books that have been sitting on your TBR shelf and published before 2013.
I have read 2 of my29 books
Good luck to us!
DeleteYou did much better than I've ever done on any challenge I ever participated in! I am so bad at them. I usually read one book and totally shut down to whatever genre I'm supposed to reading. lol
ReplyDeleteGreat job, Braine! Sorry to hear that you're in a YA funk. When I get like that, I turn to an adult read for a break. Right now, my go-to adult series is the Dark-Hunters. I've become rather obsessed with those books!
ReplyDeleteGreat progress overall! Good luck for this month :D I'm sure you'll do fine though.
