Mt TBR Wrap-up: January 2017

Posted on February 3, 2017February 1, 2017 by Elizabeth

2017 got off to an epic start. With the deadline for Aurealis judging breathing down my neck, I’ve been tearing through the books faster than I’ve been acquiring them. At the rate I’m going, I should have no trouble making it to 100 books by the end of the year. In fact, I’m thinking of […]

Mt TBR report: November 2016

Posted on December 2, 2016December 1, 2016 by Elizabeth

November has been… an interesting month. I got off to a roaring start but eye strain slowed me down significantly and I continue to be slow to recover. So I’m pleased that I still managed to finish a reasonable number of books. As expected, my #ReadMyOwnDamnBooks stats continue to slip. My goal for the challenge was to make sure […]

Mt TBR report: October 2016

Posted on November 4, 2016November 4, 2016 by Elizabeth

Oh boy. October was a pretty good month for reading. It also involved a flood of acquisitions: some Aurealis entries, some gifts, some acquisitions from Conflux, some loans and some just because I had to have them. So usual story (well, except for the gifts), just slightly higher numbers. My #ReadMyOwnDamnBooks stats continue to slip. My goal […]
