I am partaking in a reading challenge that my local library is doing. So far I have read 100 hours. Which means I read 20 hours last week!
It was a loooot of reading but I didn’t quite make it to 110 hours. The challenge is over tomorrow (not sure if it’s over at midnight or like mid-day tomorrow).
Next week I’ll have a proper retrospective on the challenge as a whole.
The thing about having multiple books on the go is that reading takes a little longer, BUT sometimes I am able to finish multiple books at once (like I did this week).

I am partaking in a reading challenge that my local library is doing. So far I have read 80 hours. Which means I read 6 hours this week. This week was very hard for me to sit down and read… Once again, I spent a lot of time just working on my website and not doing much else other than that. I would be lucky to be able to reach 90 hours next week!

I am partaking in a reading challenge that my local library is doing. So far I have read 74 hours. Which means I read 7 hours this week. For some reason, after Wednesday I just did not do any reading at all. I think it’s because I got super sucked into making my digital garden… Once I get started, it’s hard for me to stop!
As for the actual challenge, I would still need to read about 2 hours every day to meet the 110 goal… Not sure if it is doable but I have a lot of reading I want to get through so it might work out in the end.
No books were finished this week!
There are some books from last week that I’m still reading and some that I have picked up.
Didn’t do much on the reading front. But I did spend a lot of time coding, both at work (crunch time), and for this website (at the time of writing this, it is the.citrus.farm). Like I said in a previous paragraph, it really is hard for me to stop when something is unfinished. I gotta see it through until it’s done! I can’t say I’m 100% pleased with it but it is good enough.

I can’t believe it’s already week 5 of 2023. It felt like January went by both quite fast and quite slow at the same time.
I am partaking in a reading challenge that my local library is doing. So far I have read 67 hours. Which means I read 12 hours this week. Continuing the streak, this is better than last week! :) I did admittedly read a lot over the weekend (and have plans to keep reading, still) but I managed to read more every day.

I am partaking in a reading challenge that my local library is doing. So far I have read 55 hours. Which means I just read 10 hours this week. Better than last week! :) I got super absorbed in my reading this week. Admittedly, most of the reading happened on the weekend. I wish I could be more consistent on the weekdays with reading, however.

We’re already 4 weeks into 2023! The month went by quite fast. I am unsure about how I feel about this month. A lot of ups and downs this month. I think the best thing about this month is that I did not let the downs stay down and tried my best to pick it up again and pick it up fast.
On the Fediverse, someone is running an Ursula K. Le Guin book club of sorts. I am absolutely booked for the month of February (they are reading Planet of Exile right now) but maybe I will join in March, when they start reading City of Illusions. I will 100% join in April, where the focus is on the book, The Left Hand of Darkness.
