Exactly. I too needed a break from the hustle of the medium and serious teams. They are good if you want to challenge yourself or are a really fast reader. But I am relatively slow I've learned and my anxiety can't take too many consecutive months of medium or serious. ^-^

Yeah, exactly. I do want to challenge myself, and I'm aiming for a lot of books this month, but I also have to turn in my bachelor thesis, so I went with the safe choice this time around. Am currently working on my tbr for this month! :)

message 41: by Irene (new)

Irene (raenne) | 4856 comments I'm writing my reviews, and then submitting my 2½ books (no more than 300 pages all in all, I think!).

I'm reading Miss Peregrine’s Home for Peculiar Children (Miss Peregrine’s Peculiar Children, #1) by Ransom Riggs and should finish it today, but although it's long, it only counts for 1/3, because it has a few pictures... And now it's taking me so long to read it! Honestly, I'm finding it a bit hard to understand, and also boring, haha :D
I plan on getting into The Love Affairs of Nathaniel P. by Adelle Waldman today as well :)

Leandra (lexxy5327) | 108 comments Oh and btw I've read 275 pages by reading Amber Smoke. How do I add that to the overall progression? Is writing it on here enough or is there a specific thread to post that on there? (sorry I've been quite busy and haven't had much time to read up on the steps :P)
