Some good. Some bad. That’s April for ya!

Ten more books. Ten!! What the heck is wrong with me?? Every month I say it has to slow down or stop completely and it’s not. WTH??

Ain't no foolin'! It's April 1, yo!

Ohhhhh, buddy! While it slowed down a bit at the end (because of vacation), I still had another good month in March!

Okay, usually a very overachieving month for me is followed by a massive lull the next month. Not so here.

March… already? WTF?

I finished my third book of February earlier tonight, marking my 13th of 2022 out of my 48-book goal.

Was it a good start to the New Year? You tell me.

WOW! I had a pretty amazing January in terms of reading. And, while I know some people don't tend to look so kindly on graphic novels when it comes to reading goals, I don't care. I won't count individual issues, but I will count graphic novels and collected editions, as most of you know. And, yes, that did boost my count a little. But, again, I don't care.

Happy New Year, everyone! Before I move beyond 2021, I have to recap that last month known as December.

I'm really happy with how my reading goal turned out in 2021. As stated, I'm maintaining the same 48-book goal for 2022, but adding in the Anne Rice Vampire Chronicles 13-book series as part of that count. Given all that, here's how I hope to see January shape up.

It's the time... of the season... for go-oals!

My 2021 reading goal is complete. Let’s see what books helped kick me over the finish line!

Crap. I started this post and completely forgot to finish and post it. And I haven’t done my Libroqueue post either. Ugh. I knew there were posts I needed to do this week.

It only took me just shy of four months, but I finally got through Andy Weir’s Project Hail Mary.

Oh wow. Time for another goals recap already? Woooooowwwwwwwww...

I got some reading done this month. Some I planned, some I didn’t. Recap?

Hey, so the reading was a bust this past month. I think I did pretty decently on my goals otherwise. Check it!

Well… I’ve made progress on my list of books for the month. I mean, I did read a couple of them, but life happens, right?

It’s just been a summer of mixed-bag goal achievement, hasn’t it?

BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!! That’s my reaction to questions about how I did on my monthly Libroqueue challenge.

A mixed bag in July, that's for sure. Let's recap!

Yeah yeah, so I didn’t read all the books I set out to read, but I did read four books throughout the month, which keeps me on par for my overall goal.

30 days up, 30 days down. And just as quickly, we’re into the second half of 2021. 

As predicted, May raised the bar high. Too high. Unsustainably high. And I paid for it in June. Paid ugly. 

It's a new dawn... It's a new day... It's a new life... For me... And I'm feeling good... I'm feeling good.

While I thank Mr. Bublé for the lyrics and I have yet to expound upon the meaning of those lyrics, let's first recap last month's goals.

Yeah, so I kinda knocked it outta the park in May with my reading. Dangerously so. I jacked the bar so high that I’ll never be able to keep pace in June.

Hey world! Will ya slow down already? You're spinning a little out of control. But, hey, my goals are on target!

Wow! I did it! I actually did it! What "it" did I do? I hit my Libroqueue goal for the month, as well as the stretch goal I added in a few days later!

I tried. I really and truly tried to get into Lauren Oyler’s Fake Accounts. Honestly! I did!

Another month come and gone. That’s 1/4 of the year done already. Wow! And that's no April Fools!

I actually did pretty good on my reading this past month. Buckle up!

Ugh, February sucked. Snow, sub-zero temps, snow, and more snow. The bad thing was, it never warmed up until the end of the month so all the snow, while not huge amounts during each event, accumulated to 4-6+ foot tall piles that wouldn’t go anywhere except up. Gonna be a messy spring.

As we close in on the end of this abbreviated month, let’s see how my reading goal progressed!

Wow! Whadda January. One for the books, fo sho! Time to move past the headlines and see how I did with goals.
