Lesley (eyelit) | 3 comments I fell a bit short in 2018 so I'm trying for Mt Olympus again this year. Once again I'm going to put myself on a book buying ban until I've made it least a quarter of the way through the challenge (because that actually worked in my favor last year). Fingers crossed I can actually complete (or exceed) my goal this year!

Laura | 6 comments The book ban till 25% is a great idea! I never make it all year, but that might be a good incentive.

Lesley (eyelit) | 3 comments welp, I was absolutely terrible about tracking here... but I did keep a shelf for MtTBR2019 and I just checked my shelf and I met the goal (155 of my own books read this year)!!! woo-hoo. Will definitely participate again next year. If I've got a free moment before the end of the year I'll update the titles in this thread. :-)
