Litsybythenumbers

Here are the challenges I didn't finish this year: @Chelleo's #LitsybytheNumbers, @BookRiot's #ReadHarder2018, @JessBerk13's #LRC2018 & #Goodreads2018readingchallenge. On a more positive note, I may have a long way to go to finish but I've read 11 books for @DuckofDoom's #SFFTBRChallenge so at least I'm making progress! Also, I did finish #LitsyAtoZ2018 so I'm happy I can say I accomplished at least one reading goal 😊 #2018WrapUp #SeasonsReadings

LibrarianRyan Woo hoo . We are in the same boat. But you are a good way on SSFTBR. I‘m at 12. Starting 13. 6y

Mdargusch There‘s always 2019. 😂 6y

30 People Who Changed the World: Fascinating Bite-sized Essays from Award-winning Writers | InkThinkTank

Getting my car serviced and walked across the lot to my favorite local coffee shop. They had a tray full of free decorative stones with words of encouragement and meditation (strength, blessed, courage, forgiven, etc). I chose Be Still because it‘s truly a struggle for me. What word(s) would you choose?

#LitsyByTheNumbers #30 #thirty

Happy Friday!

EastWind76 Strength or Be Still... both are things I need! 😀 6y

SW-T What a good idea! I‘d go with Focus and Patience. 6y

CouronneDhiver Forgiven. I‘m always way too hard on myself 6y

AmberWB Just breathe. I always get myself all riled up about things that usually can‘t be changed and/or aren‘t really a big deal in the grand scheme of things. 6y

Challenges | Ben Bova

Still chugging along...will likely not finish until we‘re officially into 2019. #litsybythenumbers

Louise Wow! You‘ve nearly finished this challenge! Brava! Your package arrived today. Thank you! You are so organized! I have yours all wrapped up and ready to go. Hoping to get it to the post office tomorrow. 📦 6y

Chelleo @Louise Thanks. I still feel like a low rate challenge host. Can‘t even finish my own challenge 😩 I got off to such a great start then got sidetracked by the entire Michael Vey series. I‘m not that organized either. Still trying to pick up a few last minute gifts and a few won‘t get there until after Christmas. Hope they think of it as an extended Christmas 😝 6y

Louise It‘s fun to receive things after Christmas! It keeps things festive! Plus, the three wise men didn‘t traditionally arrive with their gifts until January 6th. Thus, the 12 days of Christmas. Gosh, I just helped myself to feel better about my late packages! 😂 6y

Louise P.S. Re: challenges, I‘ll be reading my way around the world for YEARS! 6y

80 Years of the Oscar: The Official History of the Academy Awards | Robert Osborne

pick

I love weird facts and random trivia and this book delivers. It‘s dense and a lot of info packed in but I enjoyed skimming through and picking out things of interest. I liked checking out the nominees for best music and seeing how many I knew. The very end includes a list of random factoids that was pretty cool. Also fills my #80 for #LitsyByTheNumbers.

Ruthiella I love books like this. Before google they were all I had to gain trivia pursuit winning knowledge!😀 6y

LazyDays I love random facts also!

70 Thousand Million, Million, Million Stars in Space | Paul Rockett

Trying to end the year on a high note by completing my #LitsyByTheNumbers challenge. These will take care of #70 and #80. I‘m realistic though so odds are good I won‘t finish until early 2019. #NoPressure

Falling Behind: How Rising Inequality Harms the Middle Class | Robert Frank

#2018Challenges: Trying to get back on track with #LitsyAtoZ2018 & hoping to meet/exceed my Goodreads goal of 84 books, but I don't think I'm going to complete #LitsybytheNumbers or #ReadHarder. I thought I'd be able to use books for multiple challenges, but there hasn't been as much overlap as I hoped. I'm certainly being challenged! I'm a mood reader & never able to stick to a plan so I guess I should be happy I've accomplished this much 🤷‍♀️

sprainedbrain I scrapped my ReadHarder plans a few weeks ago... trying to finish a couple of others, though! 6y

Chelleo If it makes you feel any better, I‘m behind on #litsybythenumbers too 😭😭😭😂 Taking inventory as we speak! #badhost #gotofftoagreatstart #crashingandburningnow 😂 6y

TK-421 @Chelleo @sprainedbrain Glad I'm not the only one! 6y

Five Summers | Una LaMarche

so-so

4 friends and their friendships that spans 5 summers at sleep-away camp. Fun read...felt long at times. The storyline jumps back and forth between girls and summers so it can get confusing if you aren't paying attention. #litsybythenumbers #five #5
