Welcome 2013!

So, clearly, I'm a little behind when it comes to this project.

I finished my 100 book challenge in early October, so I went crazy and decided to add 25 more titles. Finished number 125 on Dec. 31st. 

Debut Author Challenge: I dropped this one after the whole Story Siren thing. I just wasn't all that interested in it after everything went down.

New Adult Challenge: Read three "new adult" titles during the year. I completed this by June.

Off the Shelf Challenge: Eh. I didn't read the 15 titles I set out to. Library books are more distracting since they have due dates. I'm super lucky ours doesn't have late fees, but it's still a good idea to return them in a timely manner. I did read 8 of the 15. So progress was made, but not as much as I hoped.

What's in store for 2013? After finishing 100 books so early last year and hitting 125 by the end, I've gone crazier and am aiming for 150 this year. So far I'm on pace with 9 books read. I'm also challenging myself to read titles from my own shelf again, I'm thinking maybe one per month. They are other challenges I'm considering, but I haven't officially signed up for anything. More posts to come if this happens. I'll do my best to continue with reviews, though I can't guarantee they'll all be YA. My new fo' real librarian job requires Reader's Advisory for adults, so I'll be expanding into grown-up reads.
