Welcome to Litsy!

Joining @Jas16 on her #24in2024 to try to tackle my TBR list. Hopefully I won't buy 24 more books this year and go back to where I started

Thanks @Ruthiella for the tip!

Another #readingchallenge completed. I didn‘t have this on my reading challenge goals but will be updating the goals to include.

I‘m half way through the year and have completed four #reading goals.

Here‘s my Challenges update for March & YTD. I‘m pretty happy with my progress so far.

My 2022 reading accomplishments.

I‘ve recently identified a new category of books in my reading life…the “I know this is a good book but it‘s overwhelming me to read it right now” category. Real life issues are interfering with my attention span; gone are the days where I‘d sit down and read for hours. Yesterday I gave up on a 700 page book at 40% because of its length but also because it‘s book one of a trilogy. Anyone else experiencing real life affecting reading life??

My 2022 Reading Challenges

1. I started using Storygraph toward the end of 2021 and I‘m just going to use it to track moving forward. I chose 120 books as I have a few chunksters I want to get to this year.
2, 3, & 4. I continue to enjoy each of these challenges so I‘m in for 2022.
5. Maybe it‘s nostalgia, but I want to revisit some books I have read in the past. Only requirement is that it‘s been more than 2 years since I have read them.

This site has a ton of challenges

1. Yes I do. While I don‘t always follow my lists and TBR, I love finding new books to fit challenges. It‘s a lot of fun.

2. Oh I can‘t pick just one! I‘m really enjoying #bookspinbingo by @TheAromaofBooks and I enjoy the challenges @AkashaVampie makes for our group.

This is the last of my seven reading challenges for 2021. I really like that @annebogel made a choose-your-own-adventure-style challenge this year. This is my second year doing her reading challenge.

Do you do any reading challenges? What are your 2021 reading challenges/goals?

As many of you know, Rachel and I host a podcast, the Reading Squad. We decided to start a reading challenge for 2021 based on themes of social justice. Here are the 12 prompts and here is a link to the PDF: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1_suTAjurqeaDSiV27f7s2ppPpR2Ntz1L/view?usp=shari...

If you are interested, use #DiverseReadsChallenge for your posts. Feel free to share. Do tag us if you are participating. Happy holidays and happy reading!

And that brings me to a November progress report on my reading challenges!
