Making Progress

So far I am doing really well with attempting to read the new books that I buy
this year. Hopefully I will be able to keep it up

I have also made a nice dent in the TBR pile challenge. Need to start working on the chunksters.

If I could only hit the lottery for big bucks I would have lots more reading time

Hard to believe another month is gone. So far I think I am doing ok on keeping up with challenges. Ok lets not talk about the chunkster challenge. I really have to get moving on it. Right now even though I have some new books to read and they keep calling to me... I have been reading The Aunt Dimity series. I have had these books sitting here forever and it is nice to clear them out. I thought it might bother me to read them one after another.. but so far it is going good. The plan is to read a couple more and then take a break and read some new books.

So far March is going well. Today is the 4th and I am starting my 4th book. Now if only I can keep it going...

Too Many books

Well so far I am doing great at reading the books I pick up at the library and reading
the new books that I have bought this year... However, I seem to be getting off-track on
reading the books for the TBR challenge. So after I finish Sisters, and then I have to read
Shopaholic and Baby that is on its way to me..I will put my new books aside and read the
books from my challenge list At least this is my goal. Hopefully it will work
