Guys, guys, guys, I’ve been doing pretty well!
Mid-year is here! I can’t believe we are halfway through 2019. Most resolutions are long gone, but I have been trying to keep this particular one in view. Last week I did an UPDATE on the Modern Mrs. Darcy challenge I’m participating in. You can find that here.
If you remember, the idea of this challenge was to get through my backlist while not incurring MORE physical books to my To Read Pile. Well, that didn’t work but I can’t say I’m sad about it. I have been much more choosey when I do purchase a new book, and a lot of the if-y ones, I borrow from the library.
JOY! So far, I’ve read these backlist books:
The Afterlife of Holy Chase
Made You Up
The Wicked King
Nevernight
The Bear and the Nightingale
The Girl In The Tower
Pivot Point
Split Second
Sea Witch
The Winters
The Shock of the Fall
A Murder In Time
Head On
How to Talk So Kids Will listen, Listen So Kids Will Talk
The Alchemy of Forever
The Iron King
The School of Good and Evil
That’s 17 books!
But then I bought these books:
So I guess it all evens out.
For the second half of the year, I’m going to focus on this challenge even more. It looks like we may be moving (gasp!) sometime in the next couple of years and the one thing I hate hate hate is moving books.
How are your challenges for 2019 going? Do you have any you’re succeeding on or failing at? I’m doing a little bit of both. 🙂
