Oops I forgot to update you on my bookish challenges each month and here we are with 6 months of the year down. By the end of today I will have read at least 108 out of my Goodreads Challenge to read 150 books.

That will take me up to 20/40 on my friends and my #40bks40yrs challenge and I have highlighted what I’m planning to read for each category except from two. What I’m going to start on my birthday – as I will go with what I fancy picking up on the day.

And as July 4th is approaching I’m wondering if anyone knows of any books set to a background of Independence Day celebrations. Although I did just read the Hamiltome so I’m wondering if that will count.

See the pictures below to see what I’ve read/plan to read.

I am doing less well 8/23 for the #betterworldsbooks2018 challenge, but again I have now highlighted what I plan to read.

Some of the books I highlighted at the beginning of the year that I wanted to read in 2018 overlap with the two challenges above.

I listed 40 books I’d like to read this year and have read 16 of those. Unfortunately two of those books have had their release dates delayed to 2019.

And out of the 2018 anticipated releases I’d jotted down 12/21

Are there books set for release in the second half of this year that you think I should add to my TBR?

My TBR for July appears to have reached 21 books?! 😬📚📚📚📚📚📚📚. YALC is suddenly later this month, when did that happen. I’m loving organising myself in the Fairyloot Reading Journal we got in June’s Box.

How are you doing with your reading goals for the year?
