I had SUCH a great week! I met all of my overall goals and most of my daily goals. I managed to read a whopping 2,095 pages – I finished 4 books and read half of two others, so that kinda counts as another whole book! I think that’s a record for me in one week! Now I’m caught up on my Goodreads challenge as well as ARC August and my review copies. (Sadly I’m behind on reviews now, though…) I’m super proud of myself!

Today’s notes: The brutal cat mutilation in The Hawkweed Prophecy caused a pretty bad setback for me today. I waffled a lot over whether or not to pick it back up again, as I was enjoying it in the beginning, but every time I tried I got upset all over again. I wasted a lot of time procrastinating about it so now I won’t finish a book today like I had hoped to :(
