“Monday’s Minutes” is a weekly post in which I track my bookish life.

Total pages read this week: 249

Total books for the year: 0 of 90. I managed to finish Lagom before the 31st, but I’m still working on finishing the other books I was reading before the end of 2020. I’m using #BoutofBooks this week to do it and hopefully start my first book of 2021.

Total books for the year: 88 of 85. I’m trying to finish all of my current reads by New Year’s Eve so that I can bring in the New Year with a new book from my TBR to kick off my #ShelfLove challenge. I’m well over halfway through Lagom, a little more than 20% of the way through The Girl in the Tower, and nearly 30% through Around the World with Auntie Mame, so I think I can do it if I really buckle down and not give in to the temptation of starting any other books.

Total books for the year: 85 of 85. I’m trying to catch up on all of my Christmas reading. I’ve had several Christmas-related books for years and figured I would take a break from my annual re-read of A Christmas Carol to read them. I might still read A Christmas Carol, but with only 4 days until Christmas, I’m not going to rush myself.

Total books for the year: 83 of 85. My reading has gotten moodier as the weather has gotten colder and rainy. Hopefully, that won’t stop me from finishing 2 books in the remaining 3 weeks of the year.

Total books for the year: 77 of 85. I didn’t read much this week, but I did watch A LOT of Youtube videos on being frugal and Minimalism. I also listened to quite a few podcasts, and watched “Tidying Up” on Netflix. The Boyfriend and I will be moving in a few months and we want to shed as much stuff as we can so I’m doing all of this to help give me ideas as well as stay motivated.

Total books for the year: 76 of 85. I FINALLY finished The 13 1/2 Lives of Captain Bluebear! I started it back in April, and it was not nearly as good as the other books I’ve read by Walter Moers. Of course, it is his first book in the “Zamonia” series. Hopefully, Rumo will be better, but it’s going to be a while before I pick that one up.

Total books for the year: 74 of 85. Now that the month of Halloween is over and November has begun, I am determined to finish the Current Reads that have been sitting there giving me side-eye for months. I keep telling myself I will not start any new books until those 3 books are finished. The only exception is if I want to start listening to an audiobook, but I have so many podcasts to keep me occupied right now, I don’t know if I’ll be starting any audiobooks any time soon.
