Message 17 update.

3/4 completed. I got sucked down a research rabbit hole and didn’t quite get as much reading done as I’d planned, so I’m finishing up with 3 books completed. I did enjoy what I read quite a lot, though!

In case you find yourself in that situation again, Regina, you can ask to have your goal adjusted. I've seen goals decreased when life gets in the way of reading, or increased when one finds more time on their hands.

Thanks for joining us. I'm happy that you enjoyed your reads!

Thank you for this challenge TerryJane, I really enjoyed it. It also helped that my series of what I thought were only werewolf shifters also included dragon shifters after book book 5 of 10.

Carmen | 8125 comments Hi, TerryJane!
I didn't make it, I thought that I'd be able to finish Go Tell the Bees that I am Gone on time for the challenge, but I din't (almost 900 pages and too much crochet...🙄), but I'm enjoying it thoroughly so far.

PROGRESS: 9/10 👼
Thank you for the good time! 🤗

Glad you had fun with your reads and the blanket. 🧶📚😃

Almost all my books are audio these days. I'm hoping that if I start back with crocheting, I might be able to work a simple pattern while I read. We'll see.

Sorry, only got 4 of my 7 pledged books read. Just ran out of time. I did enjoy this challenge though. It was a lot of fun.

TerryJane | 4076 comments Since we're one week into December, I suppose everyone has finished updating their November reading. Here are our final figures, for those who like the stats.

Of our 31 participants, 25 (81%) got off the ground by reporting in with some progress, and 18 (58%) took flight by meeting or exceeding their goal. Yay!

Books pledged: 140
Books read: 124
Completion rate: 89%

Thanks so much for joining in with us for our winged November adventure!

Why would you be given wings if you weren't meant to fly?
