Well, despite a surprisingly good reading month, with 17 total books/3270 pages (including 5 picture books and 6 NF, 4 non-white authors), and reading 11 of my #BookSpin list, I STILL didn‘t manage to get a bingo! How annoying.

Well February is now over and I ended up doing better than I expected! Made it through 8 books (I‘ve got 2 others I‘m currently working on), including my #doublebookspin pick! It‘s hard to see the writing on the pictures but my favorite book of the month was Wish You We‘re Here by Jodi Picoult and it‘s becoming quite clear that my current favorite genres are contemporary fiction and mystery/thrillers and I mostly listen to audiobooks.

July Wrap Up. This was a great reading month for me. I complete my July #BookSpin and #DoubleSpin books plus 2 bonus books not on my #BookSpinBingo card. 13 books read + 1 bailed altogether.

MatchlessMarie Technically a reread but still a bonus 3y

I won‘t finish Out of Time tonight, so here‘s my #JulyWrapUp. Pretty pleased, all things considered, with this. 8 books read, about 1300 pages and 31 hours of audio. July was a fun mix of genres and formats. The top row were my favorites and half the books count for #MountTBR.

#EasterExtravaganza wrap up

Goal 1: finish House of Hades and Nancy Drew #53 - done and done
Goal 2: work on audiobook - not even a minute
Goal 3: read at least two other books - yes and no; read one bad romance and most of a good one, but didn‘t finish before the end of the readathon

Overall about a 50% success rate, but I‘m ok with what I accomplished. With life as crazy as it is right now, any reading time is a plus.

Andrew65 Well done on all that you achieved. 👏👏👏🙌🍾🥂 Thanks for playing along. 5y
Kelly_the_Bookish_Sidekick Sounds like 8 days well spent if you ask me! Nice job! 5y

Here‘s my #25infive wrap up! I was hoping to get at least 20 hours, but I had some annoying health stuff come up yesterday that took longer than expected. I finished 4/5 books from my original TBR though, and made progress on 3 others. #25andcapsule #readathon

So here‘s my #MayWrapUp / #MonthlyWrapUp - I wish I could have squeezed some more reading in but Furyborn took up so much reading time (biggest disappointment so far this year of anticipated books); it took about 3 wks to get it read.
Some books totally took me by surprise, and the weather getting warmer has been making my MS symptoms act up (more fatigue and pain, yay).
Lots of reviews ON MY BLOG 👉🏼
