Hello! As I had said at the beginning of the year, I’m doing 2 reading challenges: the Goodreads Reading Challenge, where I’m aiming for 75 books and the Popsugar Reading Challenge. I’ll do a quick update here on the state of both challenges.
Starting with the easier one here… so I set myself the goal of 75 books back in January, 
and now I’m kind of thinking that I might have to change that. See, It’s the beginning of April, and I’m 43 books ahead of schedule and I’m 83% done with my challenge. So I’m guessing that I should up this challenge soon, because I’ll probably be done this month or in May.
So far I’ve completed 16 of the 40 categories of this challenge, so I think I’ve been doing good 🙂 . Of course that now the ones left are the hardest, but I won’t think of that.
1. A book based on a fairy tale
2. A National Book Award winner
3. A YA bestseller
4. A book you haven’t read since high school
5. A book set in your home state
6. A book translated to English
7. A romance set in the future
8. A book set in Europe
9. A book that’s under 150 pages
10. A New York Times bestseller
11. A book that’s becoming a movie this year
12. A book recommended by someone you just met
13. A self-improvement book
14. A book you can finish in a day
15. A book written by a celebrity
16. A political memoir
17. A book at least 100 years older than you
18. A book that’s more than 600 pages
19. A book from Oprah’ Book Club
20. A science-fiction novel
21. A book recommended by a family member
22. A graphic novel
23. A book that is published in 2016
24.A book with a protagonist who has your occupation
25. A book that takes place during summer
26. A book and its prequel
27. A murder mystery
28. A book written by a comedian
29. A dystopian novel
30. A book with a blue cover
31. A book of poetry
32. The first book you see in a bookstore
33. A classic from the 20thcentury
34. A book from the library
35. An autobiography
36. A book about a road trip
37. A book about a culture you’re unfamiliar with
38. A satirical book
39. A book that takes place on an island
40. A book that’s guaranteed to bring you joy
My Tiny Obsessions 
You’re doing amazing in both challenges. It’s time to change the Goodreads obe XD
i think you’re right… do I put it at what? 100? 125?
If it was someone else I would say 100 but I’m pretty sure you put 125. You’ll get there soon 🙂
i just did a quick math and realized that if I keep this pace I can reach 180 by the time the year is over. but I don’t want to stress over it…
Go to 125. You can change it later if you need to
😀
WOW you are doing so good in both challenges! I love this little update to see some of your favourites of the year so far in the mix!
63 books?! You’re a machine!! I didn’t take the time to add all your amazing reading months so obviously you’re super far ahead in schedule. I feel like you could hit 100 books this year 👏🏻🙌🏻
eheh, i changed my goodreads challenge to 125 books :), I’m still 29 books ahead of schedule though
Dang girl haha I hope you accomplish it! I’m going for 120 myself
i hope we can both accomplish it 😀
You’re doing great! I’m like way behind on Goodreads. I just can’t remember to put the books I’ve read on there so now I’m way behind. Good thing I didn’t sign up for another challenge!! Or maybe I did…
lol. i always update my status, so it’s easy to keep track
I wish I did that 😦
*applauding you* Your progress on the Goodreads challenge is amazing, Bravo ! it’s time to up it a bit 😀
I wish I could read as fast as you. I think I am 6 or 7 books ahead (I set my goal to 50).
I thought about joining the popsugar challenge but since it’s my first time doing challenges I didn’t want to take up more than I can handle.
that’s a smart move. I did the popsugar one last year, and I didn’t finish it. It’s still fun to try to fit books into categories and expand the reading to books you wouldn’t normally go for. I upped my challenge to 125 books yesterday 😉 (I’m still 30 books ahead though)
Haha thanks ! I’m doing some other challenges though (That I prooobably should do a post about but well !)
Yes, it is ! To be honest, the popsugar one kind of intimidated me, I thought I wouldn’t be able to complete any of it but now I realize that it isn’t as hard as it may seem. There’s always next year :p
yes 🙂
Awesome job on your reading challenges! I’m seriously jealous of your Goodreads challenge. I thought I was doing good just being ahead on mine by two books but you’ve totally killed me on that, haha!
I can’t get over how many books you’ve read! Well done!
thank you 🙂
Wow your doing so well in both your reading challenges. I made myself a reading challenge, which is going well, and I’m doing the Goodreads challenge but I’m doing miserably in it 😦
– Yasmin
well, one is going well :), that’s great!
Haha thanks
You have read 62 books in just over 3 months? Are you lowkey superwoman? What is this magical power??!!!? Congrats on doing so well girl! 😄😄
LOL… nop, I wish I was though… it would make life so much easier…
You’re doing so well! You’ll complete these challenges in no time 🙂
hope so :D, I had to up my GR challenge though 😉
