How are you doing with your goals?
Thanks for stopping by and have a great day!
Thanks for this enjoyable challenge. I achieved some goals (6) and missed on 3 so happy enough. And I am in for 2017.
That’s Awesome Kathryn! And so glad you are joining us again!!!!!
I feel like a big fail this year, too. BUT 96% NetGalley?!?! Congrats! I only have 500ish books to go to get there. (I know.) I think I might go back and do a spreadsheet type thing. I started it for this year and then promptly forgot about it.
I am a pen and paper girl, the spreadsheet didn’t work but I did find that making Goodreads shelves help.
