Hello loverlies! I hope you enjoyed this readathon as much as I did! I want to thank everyone who participated, and give a special thanks to those who took the extra time to participate in the mini challenges as well. How did everyone do?! I did good – I didn’t reach my goal of 1200 pages or 3-4 books, but I was pretty busy this week and I still read more than I normally would, so I count that as a success!
I want to give a super special thank you to Kristin @ Super Space Chick and Stephanie @ In Wonderland for hosting the two mini challenges! You guys rock! <3
Both of these ladies are handling their giveaway winners, so stay tuned for that!
My goals
- Finish current read
- Read 3-4 more books -OR- 1200 pages
- Read a little bit every day
My final progress
Total # pages read: 948
Total time spent reading: 8 hours, 5 min reading, 20 min listening
Books I completed: Saga Vol. 5, A Gathering of Shadows, Burning Sky (DNF), Scorched
This week ended up being way busier than I thought it would be! I didn’t read nearly as much as I wanted to, and I didn’t make my goal of 1200 pages or 3-4 full books. I did read 4 different books, but AGoS was almost done and I DNFed Burning Sky so those don’t really count. *sad face* Oh well, I still read more than I normally would in a week, so yay!

I did meet my goals! I wanted to finish at least one book because I was in the middle of a HUGE book (A Discovery of Witches) so I was super happy to finish it! Here’s my wrap up:

I didn’t do the greatest. I finished two books and started 2 more.I could have done a lot better but life got in the way.
I did meet my goal! I was really happy with how my reading went this week. I hadn’t finished a book this month yet but I finished 5 during the readathon. Thanks for the push!
I read 3 of the 6 books on my TBR bUT I still comeleted my goals! It definitely turned out to be a much busier week than I was expecting. At least I pushed through, though, especially since I’ve been in a bit of a reading slump lately. Thank you for hosting!
I read only 2 books for this challenge, but they were great! I enjoyed this readathon alot and will stay tuned for next year’s. Thanks for hosting.
I did not meet my goals. But I feel like I did a pretty good job considering I’m also planning a wedding. It’s so difficult doing the things I want and love while so busy doing all the wedding stuff! :/ I will definitely participate again, though! I still had a blast!

Thanks for hosting this, Jessi! <3
I only read two books, but I’m not a fast reader, so I’m okay with that. One of the books turned out to be my favourite book of the year so far, so that’s pretty exciting, too!
