So I realize we're supposed to stay positive, etc. but I also feel like there is no sense in beating around the bush: I totally failed #BFC2021 😂 Mainly because I was really bad at actually setting goals... so maybe I was actually awesome at it, since I accomplished the goals I set?! LOL Anyway, as @wanderinglynn says, it's a new year and new challenge, and I am going to try to be a little more focused this time around!! I've already ⬇

TheAromaofBooks (cont'd) decided that I am going to focus on getting some chunksters off my TBR/shelves this year, which for me is any book over 500 pages. I'm starting with the tagged book. I don't necessarily have to finish it in January, but I want to make actual progress on it!! For the fitness aspect, my husband & I have really been working on making sure we take the dogs around the block every evening - so easy to skip this time of year - so I am going ⬇ 3y
TheAromaofBooks (cont'd) to keep that as a top priority!!

Thanks as always for hosting, Lynn - your encouragement means a lot!!!

I loved getting to return to this world. It was especially fun as it‘s a prequel to the novels and we get to see Maxim when he was a prince and making a name for himself. #Scarathlon2021 #TeamHendrix #BFC2021 #AuthorAMonth +36 pts

What a great conclusion to this particular monster hunting story. Can‘t wait for volume 4 to come out in January so I can see where Erica finds herself next. #Scarathlon2021 #TeamHendrix #Screamathon2021 #Spookoweenreadathon #Wickedathon #BFC2021 #BookSpinBingo +76 pts

What a great introduction to this horror series. I‘m so happy I stumbled upon this graphic novel while browsing the comic bookstore. The artwork combines with the storyline draws you in and makes it so you have to keep reading to see what happens next. #Scarathlon2021 #TeamHendrix #Screamathon2021 #BFC2021 #Spookoweenreadathon #Wickedathon #BookSlinBingo +76 pts

This did not disappoint! I loved the mystery that was the driving force behind the ghost story. I listened to this on audiobook which just made the book that much more enjoyable as it brought the podcast aspect of the book to life. #Scarathlon2021 #TeamHendrix #Screamathon2021 #BFC2021 #spookoweenreadathon #Wickedathon #BookSpinBingo +376 pts

Even though I‘d read this before, it has been years so I was excited to give it a reread for the #TeamHendrix #BuddyRead. Still a fun story and now I need to rewatch the movie. #Scarathlon2021 #BookSpinBingo #screamathon #BFC2021 #OutstandingOctoberReadathon +351 pts

This was a reread for me as my book club chose this for our October book and I‘m leading the discussion. I loved this story the second time around just as much as I did the first time around. A wonderful atmospheric read perfect for the season. #BookspinBingo #Scarathlon2021 #TeamHendrix #screamathon #BFC2021 +256 pts

I first read this back when it came out in 2016 and it is the book that got me hooked on Victoria/V.E. Schwab. Thankfully a reread of book held up as I still love this story,the world and characters that Victoria created. #AuthorAMonth #BookspinBingo #Scarathlon2021 #TeamHendrix #Screamathon #Wickedathon #BFC2021 +351 pts

This was a fun Middle Grade from Chuck Wendig. I enjoyed the sibling relationship along with their relationships with their supernatural friends daylong the way.
