And now it's the end of April and I've made LOTS of progress on my Reading Challenges. I must say, having Reading Challenges really DOES help me clean up my TBR piles quite a bit. I've found lots of books that I love and lots of books that I didn't like as much and I'm also continually discovering new books that get added to my reading list.
In fact, my BFF and I were discussing our next Book Club selection and while making a "list of 3 to 5 books" I was interested in, I ended up adding about 13 new books to my never ending reading list. And I chose 8 books to bring to our Mini Book Club meeting... but anyway.
Along the way, I've even picked up three more Reading Challenges and I'm all too excited about them.
I'm even doing a Reading Challenge BINGO sheet with my BFF, but my progress is a little frustrating. My BINGO cards have come close to covering so many spaces, but still no BINGO because there seems to be that persistent "one space" in each row that I can't find a fill-in for. More details on that some other time.
It's time to get back to my reading!
