Victoria (crushedbymytbr) | 76 comments June Reading

This month sucked. Hayfever meant I couldn't read with my sore, itchy eyes, and the weather meant I couldn't read with my ears (I kept drifting off in the heat). I could get maybe 10 pages/minutes at a time until the last week, when I read 4 of the 7 books.

Well, I read more books. But Victoria... Victoria... Read. Your. Own. Books!
I have read less than half of my target. Loads of rereads, but I'm not reading those books that have sat on my shelves, unloved, for months, years! It doesn't help that I'm having to reread earlier books in the series because I've neglected them for so long.

Read. Your. Own. Books.

Small victory, I picked up 2 sequels from series started last year, haven't done that for a while.

Victoria (crushedbymytbr) | 76 comments October Reading

I just need the pressure of my library books being due to get me to actually read them. At the expense of reading my own books (no deadlines there). I don't think I'm going to meet that target.

Hopefully nonfiction November will push me to meet my nonfiction target, need to read some long books. But overall, doing well.
