October ’19 challenge wrap-up
Good morning bookworms!
Welcome to the September/October challenge wrap-up!! Also known as the post where each month I go “CRAP! I forgot to check what Sophie’s prompt is for the Ultimate Reading Challenge this month” and then try and retrofit my errors into something that works… ?
Goodreads
Read 92 of 90 books.
I finished my challenge in October!! SUCCESS!!!!
Beat the Backlist
Read 47 of 50 books.
(There is a column on the original list where I have marked off the books I have read.)
Beat the Backlist Epic Reading Bingo
Slow, but steady progress… in case you haven’t figured it out, I am attempting to hit every square on this, not just a row or column. There are so many books on here that could just fill 2-3 lines, but I’m going for books that hit random prompts first to try and get the harder ones out of the way early!
Year of the Asian
Read 12 of 10 books!!!

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!!
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?
