There’s really only one response..
I very rarely join these.
Keeping up with real life responsibilities, the reading, the reviews, and responding is usually more than enough to keep my hands full.. but apparently I’m feeling masochistic.
You see.. Last night I stumbled across a fantastic book challenge shared by suzannarivera @ Bella (Thank you, Bella!) and I just couldn’t pass up the chance to try it out.

I don’t have any specific books selected yet but I’ll be attempting to combine Readathin with the BeattheBacklist challenge so.. I’m hoping to match some of those books with the prompts.
(You can find out more about BeattheBacklist →Here←)
That should make things interesting..
Wish me luck!

Thank you for taking a moment to check out my post!
I’m still pretty new to the way book challenges work so.. I hope I did it correctly.
(But, please, do let me know if I didn’t.)
And that’s about it for now.. Stay safe and Happy reading, everyone!
What about you?
Are you participating in any challenges this year?
Good luck with your Readathin, Sheri! It certainly looks interesting…I get stressed out by challenges (BeatTheBacklist is my main one this year), but these prompts look wonderful esp.make yourself a cuppa. You have a great tbr for this month! I’ve just finished the Heights-can’t wait to find out what you think of it.
Thank you! It might be a little bit of juggling but the prompts are great and it looked like fun.. (Luckily I’m addicted to chamomile tea. 😆)
Best of luck with your own BeattheBacklist!
I’m a third of the way into The Heights now.. Did you enjoy it? I’ve heard so many mixed opinions..
I hope you enjoy and have a good reading month! Oo I liked the Diviners hopefully you will enjoy it too (loved listening to the audiobook) 💕
I think it will be.. Thank you!
And with how long I’ve been planning on reading that book.. I sure as heck hope I like it! 🤪😆
You’re doing this perfectly! Good luck! I’m sure you’ll be able to complete it!
Btw, if you like bookish bingos, why not check out the readers first bingo? They have a new one every month!
That’s a relief and much appreciated! I’ll be happy to just get a Bingo.. 😅
Best of luck with your own reading goals and challenges!
And that’s so nice of you, thank you, I’ll be sure to check it out!
Yay! so happy for you to join the readathon, you did an amazing job with your post. Happy Reading!
Glad to be joining in! And that’s good to know, thank you.. I’m still new to challenges.
Happy reading to you, too, and have a beautiful weekend!
I think the bingo type of challenges are very fun. Good luck!
It looked like it.. Guess I’ll find out! 😉
Thank you and I hope you’re enjoying your February reading so far!
Good luck Sheri. I have been avoiding challenges for the past couple of years as I found them too stressful and I got enough stress at work. I might look at doing one or two next year though. ❤📚
Ahh.. That makes sense. I hope work isn’t causing you too many problems. Best of luck if you do join something.. BeattheBacklist seems like a good one. It lasts all year at least.
