2015 reading by month

I thought I had achieved my Goodreads goal of 50 books until I noticed that a book that I'd read had been added twice, and the list on this blog had another title added incorrectly.

I ALMOST made it - 49 books read in 2015.

I'm such a visual person and I've used LibraryThing widgets for many years but not for a while in my posts.

Here is 2015 by month in visual (widget) form...























So not a bad reading year for the year I've had.

May 2016 be a great reading year for you!!

As 2015 comes to a close...

I'm limping to the finishing line of 2015 with 46 books read so far. My goal on Goodreads had been 50 books as 100 is way more than I have been able to achieve in recent years.

Can I make it to 50? Perhaps. I'll let you know in 2016 on how I do. Wish me luck!



I've recently finished:
The Road to Ruin by Bronwyn Stuart - 5 stars!
Deenie by Judy Blume (a blast from the past author)
The January Wish by Juliet Madison - 4.5 stars!
Vanished, vol 2: books 3 & 4 by Meg Cabot - 5 stars!

26 and a-counting

It's been a long time since I've posted in Eleni's Library. My reading went out the window with the passing of my father and I've only managed to get it back in the couple of weeks in particular.

I'm delighted that I'm able to concentrate again and that the change in my volunteering status has allowed me time to be able to once again feed the soul and my soul was in desperate need to be fed.

I've recently finished:
Tapestry by Fiona McIntosh - 5 stars!
The Darkest Night by Gena Showater
Crazy in the Blood by Lucienne Diver - 5 stars!

 


Primary book reading in print: 
Divine by Mistake by P.C. Cast

Poison Kissed by Erica Hayes *Darksider
Cross Stitch by Diana Gabaldon (re-read)

The Rosie Project by Graeme Simsion

Happy reading all!

The year that was 2014....

really sucked! I'm not going to mince my words. I ended up reading 25 books which is way under what I wanted but at least I read something.

To see how I did in 2014, you can go to the Past Challenges page.

Basically I pretty much didn't reach my goals but it was a lousy year, so I'm not going to beat myself up over it.

Now onto 2015 reading!!!


~Happy Reading~
