#finishwhatyoustarted

It‘s time for the #finishwhatyoustarted readathon to clear out whatever you need to get finished before the end of the year! I was hoping to start strong and finish something this weekend but I just got a notification from the library that 3 holds are in and I still have six in the house so I should prolly work on those!

I know I‘m a mood reader and even the idea of a November TBR will probably mean I read none of these books, I wanted to at least TRY to plan some reading - I‘ve been doing a lot of digital ARCs and library books and I want this to be more of a physical book month (clear those messy shelves!!) The Kingdoms is a #finishwhatyoustarted pick and I‘m hoping to get a couple other half read books wrapped up too, just not sure which.

I am committed to finishing this, hopefully in November but absolutely in 2025. I started it in 2014, it was a gift. My plan then was to read a chapter a month. It is so full of information and real life stories, it can be overwhelming and break your heart. Today I read schizophrenia; “autism is characterized by an over abundance of synaptic connectivity, schizophrenia is marked by a dearth of it.” #nonfictionnovember #finishwhatyoustarted

dabbe That's a W😮WZA book! ♥️🍁🧡 4d
mcctrish @dabbe for 10 years I‘ve hoped to find it on audio 🙏🏻 and now I just have to get on with it 4d
janeycanuck Oh, wow, that sounds intense. You‘ve totally got this! (edited) 4d
mcctrish @janeycanuck here‘s to avoiding reality some more as I am want to do 😂😂😂 always with my head stuck in a book, damming the consequences 4d

A little behind thanks to so much baseball 💔 so Sunday morning is for reading up for #sundaybuddyread with my coffee in a cup from Nice where I went to museums full of Picassos and my reading chair TBR is updated to include #finishwhatyoustarted #allergictochunksters #nonfictionnovember #literarycrew and my latest mini Lego set

Aims42 Ugh, what a heartbreaker of an ending 😢 5d
Cathythoughts Great pic. Enjoy your coffee x 5d

ChaoticMissAdventures I am reading Far From The Tree this month too! It is a commitment. 5d
mcctrish @ChaoticMissAdventures I started this so long ago 🤦🏻‍♀️ I stalled out at schizophrenia and truthfully I have always wondered why he didn‘t include a chapter on women considering how some of the world feels about having a girl child 5d
ChaoticMissAdventures @mcctrish I just looked at the chapters yesterday, and was also immediately annoyed that there was a son chapter but nothing that spoke to women. Glad I am not alone there. 5d
TheBookHippie @mcctrish ugh so upset about the baseball. 5d
Aims42 @mcctrish very true! 😢💔 5d
janeycanuck Ugh, that game… right down to the very bitter end! May you be more successful in your quest to finish what you started! 5d

I‘m too tired to make a pretty Canva graphic for November‘s #BookSpinBingo list, so a Note on my phone and prettied up with PicCollage will have to do!

This year went downhill fast, and my reading has taken a significant hit the last couple of months. #FinishWhatYouStarted will hopefully be a good push to read the 30+ books I‘ve started this year but have failed to finish, and I really want to get in some nonfiction for Nonfiction November.

TheAromaofBooks Woohoo!! 5d
janeycanuck Ooh, I didn‘t even think of putting any of my #finishwhatyoustarted stack on my book spin list. Smart! Good luck! 5d
Librarybelle Thanks, @janeycanuck ! And thanks for this great idea for an end-of-year challenge! 4d

Well, I meant to post this stack last week but I had to start a couple more books so I had lots of choice for my #finishwhatyoustarted readathon. Some of these were started in 2022!!! 🙈

Do you also have a few in-progress books or challenges you want to focus on finishing for the rest of the year? Join me!

Bookwormjillk Great idea for a Readathon! 1w

Yikes. I‘ve just realized I have an unreasonable number of half-read books that I‘d really like to get read before the end of the year. Feeling the same? Join me for a #finishwhatyoustarted readathon starting Nov 1. It doesn‘t need to be half-read books. Maybe you are behind on a challenge or some buddy reads? Make whatever you like of it!
I‘ll post my stack later this week.

SamAnne I will join. I‘m on a meandering road trip for the next few weeks and have been tackling those half read books! 3w
