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.

Total books for the year: 72 of 85. I love readathons! They give me the opportunity to get through a chunk of my TBR or a large number of pages, and sometimes both. I finished 4 books this time around, and almost finished a 5th. I will likely finish The Carrow Haunt today since I only have an hour left on the audiobook.

Total books for the year: 67 of 85. I’m back on track with my reading goal, according to Goodreads. I did a lot of audiobook listening this week, but I’m also nearly done with The All-New Sequel part of Hocus Pocus. I haven’t been feeling well most of the weekend, and have had a terrible headache, so I’m still limiting my screen time.

Total books for the year: 63 of 85. I am three books behind schedule, according to Goodreads, and I am trying to catch up. I’m doing what I can to limit my screen time across all of my devices and deliberately choosing to pick up a book instead. It seems to be working so far 🙂
