I decided to break down my challenge updates each month in the same manner that I signed up for them. Tomorrow Part 2 of my challenge updates will be posted. We’re only just starting the new year, but I still wanted to go ahead and get in the habit of posting these updates in the middle of each month. Let’s see if I’ve made any progress yet.

I think you are doing great already. I always write reviews for the books I add to my challenges. This year I think I will include books read but not reviewed for some of them.
2019 was my first year to pull it off after all my years of blogging, but I am now writing reviews for every book I read. I definitely think it’s cool to include the books you don’t review, though!!
Wow, looks like you’re off to a great start with all of your challenges. 🙂
Thanks! I’m definitely pleased with my progress.
Thank you for the links and your own writing
You’re doing so well. I think I’m doing pretty good. I know I haven’t read anything for at least 2 of my challenges yet but I hope I can fix that before the end of the month.
Thanks! Good luck with yours!!
Thank you!!
