2014 Review Pile Reading Challenge!!



You might be thinking I've gone nuts now, since this is my 4th challenge for next year, but this is one challenge that really was missing in all the ones I've signed up for now. I'm still trying to get my review copies pile under control and I think a yearly challenge would help me keeping a lil bit more under control!

The 2014 Review Pile Reading Challenge is hosted by Fiktshun and Phantasmic Reads. They have different levels for your challenge, and you can go up levels during the year but not down, so I'm planning to start at the Journeyman level (11-20 books) but hopefully I'll get to the Master level by the end of the year.

This challenge is for any books we get for review, any length or format, from authors, for tours, from NetGalley, Edelweiss... as long as you got it for review, it counts!

Check the sign up post HERE and join in!

NetGalley November: Time's Up!



NetGalley November was a challenge organized by K-Books, Bookish Treasures & A Daydreamer's Thoughts to tackle our TBR list of books for review that we got from NetGalley.

I had originally aimed to read between 11-15 eARCs but I have massively failed at it! I did manage to improve my ratio a little bit, and I do plan to continue with the catching up during December, to try and start the New Year closer or on the 80% recommended ratio there!

What all did I manage to read?

- Covenant From Hell by Priscilla Royal
- Cracked by Eliza Crewel
- The Pentrals by Crystal Mack
- Pawn by Aimee Carter
- Bellman & Black by Diane Setterfield
- The Iron Traitor by Julie Kagawa

So 6 books total puts me in the Medium range of the challenge, and though I improved my ratio a lil bit, I'm still a while away from 80%, since right now I'm at 58%!
