Update on 110 Reading Challenge

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.

Books I Finished

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).

• My Pen is the Wing of a Bird by Afghan Women
• I Used to Have a Plan: But Life Had Other Ideas by Alessandra Olanow
