N | O | P | Q | R | S#1 | S#2 | T | U | V | W
Romance-opoly
Still no updates this month (mostly because I can’t find my list that tells me what each of the prompts are), but I’ve still finished PINK, BLUE, ORANGE and BROWN!!
However, given the amount of romance novels I’ve been reading this month, I’m actually expecting to cross off a few more squares on this one!!
I’ve been finishing more and more of these, so the year is definitely looking good!!
Have you finished any challenges this year?
If not, do you think you’ll come close to your goals?

Omg you’ve smashed out these challenges!! I’m worrying about whether I’ll even be able to finish my YARC19 goal of 10 books haha – who knew it would be this challenging to read more books by Asian authors. Well done <3

Thanks Tracy!! I think I had one month where I read 4 books and that helped immensely, but graphic novels seem to be pushing me over the line for this one!!

Oh this looks pretty good! For the A-Z reading challenge you only have quite hard letters left haha!

True… which is a shame!! Unless I find some romances that start with those letters?!
I did read my nephew a kids book starting with Z this year… not sure if I can count it though ?

You did sooo well! ❤❤❤ I was thinking of joining Beat the Backlist next year as well, since I have bestowed upon myself a book buy ban that lasts until June. I think that would fit quite nicely. Was it hard for you to hit the bingo? ❤
Meeghan reads
There’s two bingos. An easy one and an epic one. This is the epic. If I hadn’t been so focused on making sure that I hit the hard squares first then I could have reached a bingo months ago. I’ve posted the original bingo sheets on my blog somewhere (probably back in January) if you want to look at it!
