As you can see, I signed up for way too many challenges this year. Since I’ve been super busy with the move, pregnancy, and now baby, reading time hasn’t really been easy to find. So I thought I’d do a quarterly wrap up rather than monthly wrap up posts.
Goal: Easy Listening Listen to and review 12+ audio books. [Requires linking up reviews]
Progress: I’ve surpassed this goal so I guess I picked an easy goal for this one.

Thanks 🙂 Audiobooks FTW! I do need to get to reading more non audio though heh.
Congrats on succeeded on so many of your challenges. I was doing the TBR Challenge one this year as well, but kind of lost track. I’m pretty sure I didn’t meet my goal. But we’ll just say that the shininess of being an new blogger and connecting with a great book tour company distracted me from reading more books from my TBR Pile.
