July 2021 TBR & Challenge Update

In 2021, I'm participating in Words & Whimsy Reading Challenge (new challenge each month - July is  Arabian Nights theme) and The Avengers Initiative Reading Challenge (a year long challenge). 

I finished 10 books in June. I read a total of 976 pages and 77 hr 2 min. I read a lot of audiobooks. This whole working full-time has really kicked my butt and I'm still trying to figure out how to manage my free time with making sure I run errands and clean stuff in my house. My June wrap up goes live on Monday. I finished my Series challenge this past month and I'm doing well on the others. Really, to finish 10 books in any month, let alone one where I'm working full-time, is crazy to me. A few years back I was barely doing 4 or 5. I can't be too mad.

I have 8 criteria prompts to tackle for Words and Whimsy this month. My plan is to read 114 pages per day to read them all in the 28 days that the W&W challenge is going. I've lost my mind and have virtually no audiobooks, so we will see how this goes!
