The Nerd Daily Reading Challenge Completed

It’s taken me around 8 months, but I have completed another reading challenge for 2025. I embarked on The Nerd Daily Reading Challenge again, and enjoyed the prompts because they were broad enough to interpret for any book that I had on my shelf. There were some that were specific, and a few that I… Continue reading The Nerd Daily Reading Challenge Completed

#KT Book Bingo 2025 Completed

Another #KTBookBingo completed! This was a tricky one at first, and one I thought would take me much longer to complete. But some books just worked so well in each category, and at times I had multiple choices. I got there in the end though, and can now focus on the rest of my reading… Continue reading #KT Book Bingo 2025 Completed

QBD Reading Challenge 2025 Completed

I didn’t think I would complete this within the first three months of the year, but there you go! Given there were a few like the translated book I wasn’t sure what I would get to – I ended up having quite a few options for that one. Others I had decided to fill as… Continue reading QBD Reading Challenge 2025 Completed

Dymocks Reading Challenge Volume 1:  January to April Completed

I have completed the first stage of my Dymocks Reading Challenge for 2025. Volume one had nine prompts, and I managed to fill all of them, though I admit the Top 101 prompt is getting harder every year, mostly due to the proliferation of series, and overly popular books being on there. To tackle this,… Continue reading Dymocks Reading Challenge Volume 1:  January to April Completed

January 2025 Round Up

In January, I read 24 books for review, and a few other things thar I have going on at the moment.  It’s going to be quite a mix throughout the year, and some months may have more reviews than other months. One of my challenge prompts was an audiobook, and I chose the ‘First Chapters’… Continue reading January 2025 Round Up
