So how did I do with my TBR?  I started The Bear and the Nightingale, Born a Crime, and Pride and Prejudice.  I'm reading The World According to Narnia as part of a book club, and it moved slowly, so I will be reading that for a bit.  This is a fair bit better than… Continue reading February Wrap-Up

January started of very well.  (See my mid-month update here.)  I read four 5-star reads and one 4-star read in the first two weeks.  So, that's awesome.  I think it created a little book burn-out because I started A LOT of books, but I couldn't quite commit to anything.  So I'm currently in the middle… Continue reading January Wrap-Up

Well, I spent three weeks of July on vacation and finished six books.  So, not much to say this month.  🙂  Here are the official "stats." Books Read – 6 Pages Read – 1790 Average Pages/Day – 58 Average Days Per Book – 5.17 5 stars The kids and I giggled our way through this… Continue reading July Wrap-Up

I spent a lot of June in a reading slump.  I started too many books, but I just couldn't commit.  I had no 5-star reads, and only two 4-4.5 star reads, so it was pretty disappointing.  I hope July proves to be better! Books Read – 14 Pages Read – 4,561 Average Pages/Day – 152… Continue reading June Wrap-Up

I had my slowest reading month yet this year.  I am still recovering from a cold that knocked me off my feet.  I usually read a lot when I was sick, but I could not get my brain and eyes to cooperate.  The books I read were generally pretty good though, so I had an… Continue reading May Wrap-Up

February was a little haphazard for me.  I started a lot of books, but I had a hard time really sinking into anything for a lot of the month.  I read some romance (of course), a few graphic novels, and a handful of books I really enjoyed.  I started taking a free online Yale class… Continue reading February Wrap-Up

I was sick a lot in January, so I read a lot of silly romance books, which I tend to like to do when I'm sick.  I was not as on-target with my reading goals as I had hoped, but it's been a crazy month, so I'm not feeling too badly about it.  Here are… Continue reading January Wrap-Up
