March Reading Challenge

To try to keep myself on track, I’ve decided to do monthly challenges in 2019. In 2018, I did monthly TBR’s and I found myself straying from them a lot or not wanting to read those specific books, so hopefully this will help alleviate some of that. Each month I will set forth some a few challenges as well as go over the progress for the previous month. At the end of the year, I will rate myself on how on point my reading was. You can also check last month’s post to see how much progress I made in the last 30 days.

This post is part of the “Monthly Challenge” series, which consists of “Wrap Up Round Up”, hosted by Feed Your Fiction Addiction and “Month in Review”, hosted by The Book Date. Also, I have most recently added in “Best of the Bunch”, hosted over at A Cocoon of Books. Each month recap and summarize our month as well as set goals for the next month. To see all my Monthly Challenge posts, check out my archive. I’ve also recently published my Reading Stats from 2018 as well as my Blog Stats from 2018!

Thanks for coming by! How did your month go?

I like the idea of making personal monthly goals. I generally just read whatever tickles my fancy at the time but maybe I’ll try some planning one of these coming months.

Yay. I sometimes find myself lost and I feel like I want to read something…but can’t decided or don’t know of anything that really interests me. Also, with so many books in the world, I sometimes forget about awesome books Ive really wanted to read for a while. So these monthly posts (and the seasonal posts) really help in my reading decisions. 🙂

I absolutely love how you set up your monthly wrap up! Monthly TBRs haven’t really worked for me. Best of luck on your monthly goals!

Thanks! I have issues with the TBR lists too. I sort of more use them as current books I’m interested in possibly reading. lol. 🙂

Ten was a good book, it’s a really easy quick read. I enjoyed it. I haven’t read any of the others. Congrats on all the followers, that’s insane!

Yay, i’m so glad you liked Ten. I see it around so much and have been wanting to read it for so long but keep getting distracted by new and/or different books. Im excited to finally read it!
