Woo-hoo! Well done, you Queen of Reading Challenges. I am way behind in my review writing, but I thought I'd let you know that I'm on Book #29 in the Golden Age Bingo challenge and I have racked up three additional Bingo rows for a total of four. Only seven more books and the card is full! Hope I can get my backlog of reviews written by next week.
ReplyDeleteCongrats. I'm so sorry I didn't get involved this year, but with everything involved with me losing custody, and ignoring my blog, I really didn't plan my reading this year. I will join in again next year.
ReplyDeleteRyan, we have missed you--but with all you've had going on, it's totally understandable that you've had other things besides challenges on your mind. We'll look forward to seeing you back when you are able to join in.
ReplyDeleteSeven more, John! Woo-hoo for you too!
