Anne & Kristilyn are calling for an update on progress in their Book Bingo Challenge. When I signed up, my aim was to do at least two Bingos--anything over was going to be a bonus. Anyone who knows me, will not be surprised that I hope to cover the card. I completed my personal goal on March 25 when I filled in the last book for the "Read 5 books from the TBR pile" square. Here is a complete list of squares completed and links to the various reviews. As soon as I finish my current read, I'll be able to star the "4 books realeased in 2013" square.

Sorry folks, but I have been getting an incredible amount of spam. I have adjusted my settings and all messages will be moderated from now on. If that does not take care of the problem then I will have to go to the "Prove You're Not a Robot" thing--which I hate as much as you do.
If your name does not appear automatically, please tell me your name in the comment. Otherwise you will just show up as "Unknown." Thanks!
