2019 Bookish Bucket List | May Update

Here goes year 5 doing this! I completed about half of my 2018 Bookish Bucket List last year and want to work pretty hard to be able to say at the end of the year I completed it!  And I set myself both blogging and reading goals this year instead of combining them into one list. I am really trying to challenge myself this year and really focus on being a blogger and a reader. If you would like to see what my goals are for blogging you can check them out here

♠ Read at least 50 books.

I had such high hopes for this month since I was participating in so many readathons, but some changes in work took priority. This month has been my worst reading month this year as far as number of books read. I only finished 4 books, bringing me to an overall total of 27!

♠ Complete 10 Series.

I have completed 2 so far , plus caught up on one series with all of the published books. So it kind of makes it 3.

♠ Read at least 5 Non-Fiction/Classics 

I have started a few, but I have not completed any still.

♠ Read at least 6 BIG books.  {I am counting this as over 500 pages.} Check out my list of Big Books I want to read in 2019

Last year I failed at this challenge, so far this year I have completed 3 Big Books, which is half of my goal! I have been in a bit of a slump but hope to get some more of these done now that its almost summer and nice to read outside. Especially because I am about to go on vacation for 17 days!

♠ Be more selective with ARCs

I feel like I haven’t been requesting as many ARCs as normal, but somehow I have ended up with a ton and they all seem to be publishing very soon.

♠ Read 3 Buy 1 – Book Banning 

I did a lot better this month with not buying books, but still failing at the read 3 buy 1 method.

♠ Read 12 E-Books

I have finished 2 ebook so far. I am going home on vacation at the end of June for 2 weeks and cannot travel with a ton of books so I assume then I will read lost of ebooks.

How are you doing with your Book/Reading Goals ?
