Last December I signed up for the 2017 Reading Assignment Challenge and pronounced it the easiest challenge of all. I mean, I chose the number of books I would read (12), I chose which books I would read (all ones I was excited for), and all I had to do was read one per month. How simple is that, right? Well, join as me as I eat my words...
This 3rd quarter check-in is a chance for me to update my progress for July, August and September. Also known as, That Time Tanya Was An Epic Fail. Yep, I completely hit the skids in the 3rd quarter. July was about the time that I got myself bogged down with ALL THE ARCs and I am only now digging myself out of that hole. So it was basically Summer of the ARCs and I read NOTHING off my reading list. Progress = total face plant.
So, sad to say, my report card shows a big, fat F for this quarter. I started out the year strong but definitely fizzled out over the summer. The upside? I can still finish the year strong and have a great 4th quarter. Surely I can read three of these books by the end of the year, right? Right??

How are you doing with your reading challenges
(whatever they may be)?
Tell me I'm not the only one struggling!
One bad quarter won't kill your challenge. I know you can go hard this last quarter. =)
ReplyDeleteThanks Sam! :)
DeleteI also drowned in ARCs this summer so I totally read you! I backed off on accepting more for the end of the year so I could read some of my want to reads! Good luck for 4th quarter ♥️
ReplyDeleteGlad to see I'm not alone, Dani. :) I'm excited to get back to reading all the books I've been waiting to read!
DeleteSince I live in a perpetual slump I get Fs all the time :) I was so looking forward to your review of Making Faces! :) maybe soon :)
ReplyDeleteI actually read Making Faces a couple months ago and, uh... yeah, just never have written a review. I have sucked big time about doing timely reviews lately. I realllly need to read my notes and write that review SOON!
