So I’ve never done this. Hope I haven’t set myself up for failure but I felt I needed to do it!
I wrote a book plan to the end of the year!
In my orderly but in a panic brain I wanted to make sure I could do the challenges I have signed up for this year so this list encompasses my challenges and also read those beautiful new releases coming up (September is going to kill my bank account!) :
- Beat the Backlist Challenge
- 20 Books of Summer
- Throne of Glass Series read
July is a hard month but I’ve written it down day by day in my Fairyloot reading journal. I love it. I confess I slept with it on the first night (note: I didn’t do that intentionally, I forgot to put it away but it felt so good!)
Have you ever wrote a book plan out this far?
How did it go?
Wow, that’s some dedication! I’m just starting to plan my reads too, however I’m only planning about 6 books at a time, because I’m sort of a mood reader.

Nor have I but I thought I would give it a go. Although I have deviated from it already and it’s only the first month 😂

I’m sometimes a bit of a mood reader, so while I can make loose plans, I can’t do anything like a half-year book plan. But if a book plan works for you, then that’s great. Good luck and happy reading.

I am also a bit of a mood reader so I hope I can pull this off! I thought I really could pick books off other months as long as I do read them all in the end!

As long as the books get read the rest doesn’t matter.

Me too! I saw this post recently where they did the read 5 buy 1 challenge and I thought I might try it! It will be so hard though!!!

I am no good at challenges like that. I saw a recent book haul video by a BookTuber and for every book she hauled she had to unhaul a book. I just…I can’t do that to myself or to my books.

My personal library is a carefully curated collection. I have been building this display of books for most of my life.

I choose paperbacks and hardbacks wisely, I don’t have much space and I know if I needed to unhaul one I would probably be in tears 😂

I weed through my shelves about twice a year when they start to look a little unruly, but that’s about it. And I have to prepare myself for the unhaul for a week or so before hand so I don’t panic while deciding which ones to say goodbye to.

Hahaha… sure it was an ‘accidental’ sleep with the journal. It really is so pretty though.
I don’t have the full lists for the months so far ahead. But if I have any author requests or blog tours those are noted so I know I have those to read. When I get to the actual month I’ll see what I have listed as priorities and then add other stuff.
