2016 Reading Challenge- End of September Update
Well September turned out to be a really good reading month for me. In the calendar month alone I started and completed five books as well as completed two books I had started at the end of August or earlier in the year. This month I completed my Goodreads Reading Challenge by achieving and surpassing 30 never-before read books for the year. My overall total so far is 39 and by this time next week I will have finished The Book of Mormon completing my challenge.
October is probably going to be pretty silent from me on reviews, The Book of Mormon not withstanding, because my next book is The Count of Monte Cristo which is 1256 pages. So I might be doing some miscellaneous posts that I have been wanting to write for my WordPress blog and sharing them here as well.
