Long Over-Due 50 Book Challenge Update

Okay, so long story short. I spend most of July in the hospital, August in bed at home, and wasn't really able to read until late September. Then my excuse for not updating was "not getting to it"...for the most part. Plus bouts of feeling like crap, another hospital stay in mid-October. That was followed by being home on gawdawful antibiotics. And November was just plain busy.

So here I am updating my book list, with not too many books to add to it. As, due to several medical reasons, I have been unable to concentrate enough to get through much reading. I haven't updated my crochet part of the blog because although I hoped to get lots of crocheting done while sick, my arms/hands were not cooperating. Anywho....back to updating my book list.

For those who are curious what I'm talking about, check out the 50 Book Challenge post.

The updated count is.... : 15/50!!!

Not too bad, considering how I spent my summer and fall. The sucky part is that it's now December, so that gives me a little less than a month to finish out as many books as I can. Though considering that I started this in June-ish, not too bad. I'm hoping to get at least halfway through the 50, so that gives me about 10 more books to read.

The first P.C. Cast book read through really quick, so I'm hoping the second one will go as fast. Don't know exactly how many books there are in the series so far, but I think I can get through a few more before the month is through.

So, with so little time left, I won't do goals for myself like I did in the last post. I'll just read and focus on reading books that I enjoy! I'll post again next week probably or when I get a few more books read.
