Mission Accomplished: SOE and Italy 1943-1945 | 
@Andrew65 lost count of hours but I think I got close to 20. Completed three novels, continued Rachel Carson biography. Started a new audio book 1979 Val McDermid and Treeline by Ben Rawlence. Best readathon results for me. #20in4 🎉 (😒 now I‘ve to work on packing)
I‘m kind of surprised by the fact that I managed to meet/exceed my reading goal for the year this early! Thanks to audiobooks, no doubt. I‘ve also met my tbr goals - and the only outstanding goals are Reading Women Challenge (3 left) and Book Riot areas Harder Challenge (1 left). #readinggoals #thestorygraph
Everything I read for the next 9 days is gravy - I just hit my #goodreadschallenge goal! I was a little afraid I wouldn‘t make it this year because I hit a major slump in April - but audiobooks helped me make up the slack. I‘m curious to see what my totals for 2020 shall be because I‘ve been reading a lot this month 🤓 #goodreadschallenge2020

Woo hoo! Another #24in48 completed. 😁
I managed to finish some ‘in progress‘ books that have been languishing for a couple months, started a new audiobook, knocked some books of my #mttbr pile, and read some library books that are due back tomorrow. All in all, a good weekend!
Congrats to everyone that participated this weekend - you are all rock stars!
Many thanks to the organizers of this bookish funstravaganza!! @24in48

Woohoo! Met my goal early this year and I increased the number of books by 20! Yay me! 😋😀
DONE ✅

#24in48 hours completed.
Day 2 was definitely more difficult. Was feeling tired. Audiobooks helped with giving my eyes a rest.
Enjoyed though. I think my favourite read was Unwritten.
I know me being in Australia I've probably finished a lot earlier than everyone else. Those who still have a ways to go, keep going and enjoy the ride.

Another challenge where I experienced success was #LitsyAtoZ I liked that this challenge forced me to grab books off of my TBR shelf that I may have continued to overlook otherwise. I plan to participate in this challenge again, and I think I will combine it with the classics challenge. I have plenty of those on my TBR shelves as well.
I did well with my Goodreads challenge. More importantly to me, I read more pages this year than I did last year. I believe I will keep my book number roughly the same and focus on the number of pages I read this year.
When I️ finished my V book-A View from Chickweed‘s Window- two days ago I️ did it! I️ finished the #Litsyatoz challenge reading books whose titles start with each letter of the alphabet. I️ own 2017!!!!
My living room is currently housing everything extra from the library but the mission is complete! There‘s even space for more books 😍😍
Yay! I completed my Goodreads challenge today. That means I will at least complete ONE of the challenges I started at the beginning of the year 😂Hopefully, I can make some headway on the others too.
Also, this just happened and the Goodreads app threw me a little party.
I guess I need to set my goal higher next year. 😃
Finished 3 books today! What a way to round out the week. I feel like a reading God! 😂
