Reading Challenge Update! June 2019

12,393 Days Alive

154 Days Into 2019

Boy do I have some numbers for you! And a really long list!

• 7: How many Reading Challenges I’m Doing
• 17: Number of Books Read So Far
• 211: Number of Days Left in 2019
• 216: TOTAL Books on my #200Book 2019 Reading Challenge List

Yes, I am a wee bit behind.

Okay, a lot behind.

It’s a lot of books.

Yes, that does work out to about a book a day. I know that I won’t start the Harry Potter series re-read until September 1st, as is tradition for me, so I have some time there. And I am going on holiday at the end of the month, so there will be reading time there!

I’m genuinely not stressed out about it. If I don’t make it to my goal of 216 Books out of 200, and isn’t that some Douglas Adams maths for you, I’m not going to be too upset. I’ll just have a list all ready for next year. I’d at least like to finish the Golden Trio Reading Challenge, but again, it’s a challenge not a point of stress. There are some books that will take a week or so to read, even for me.

Want the list? Well, if you said no, too bad. I want to share my list with you.

Here’s the Translation Key for all the acronyms I’m using:
