Good luck Shelly! Looks like you're getting a lot done so far. We have a few book prompts in common, I am Malala, Truly, Madly, Guilty, Miss Peregrines Home for Peculiar Children, The Paris Wife. I might be doing some of these for other challenges, I'm getting confused by all of them.
Other books we have in common: All the Light we Cannot See, What Alice Forgot, The Kite Runner, Wild, The Light Between Oceans, and Shantaram.
Have Fun!!!

Thanks Tracy!
This year I am making a conscious effort to NOT use my phone or tablet or screens in bed so I have about an hour early in the morning and an hour at night to read. This means I can get through about 200 pages a day so I've found I'm knocking off 2 to 3 books a week.
Also the lack of screen time is helping my sleep considerably. Now if I can keep it up all year I'll be happy.
The 800 pages of Shantaram I am still working my way up to by the way lol! (Why it's been on my TBR for years!)
Best of luck with your challenge!

I hear you on Shantaram, Its been on my shelf for a really long time and its just so HUGE!!!!! It's not on my TBR for this year though.
I'm trying to get back into reading my physical copies with these book challenges this year and also borrowing some from the library instead of buying. But I'm completely dependent on my Kindle at bedtime. I just put it on black screen and dim the light way down, then it usually just makes me fall asleep. I have zero attention span right now so I haven't been getting much reading done. Last year I was reading between 4 and 5 books a week most of the year.
