August 2021 TBR & Challenge Update

Monthly TBR and Challenge Update | The post where I share what I plan to read and how badly I'm doing on my yearly reading challenges :)

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

I finished 10 books in July. I read a total of 354 pages and 101 hr 29 min. I was fortunate enough to have a mostly audiobook month. This month is the opposite and I hope I can still read at least my 8 books on the TBR. I went off the rails for last month a little and didn't stick to my TBR completely. Still pretty on track with all my yearly goals, so I cannot complain!

I have 8 criteria prompts to tackle for Words and Whimsy this month. My plan is to read 122 pages per day to read them all in the 28 days that the W&W challenge is going on. I have 2 Netgalley books and 2 Owlcrate books on my list which will put me at 1 each left for the year long goals!


My TBR for August:

  • People We Meet on Vacation by Emily Henry [Kindle - Netgalley]
  • A Lot Like Adios by Alexis Daria [Kindle - Netgalley]
  • These Violent Delights by Chloe Gong [Hardcover - Owlcrate]
  • Game Changer by Neal Shusterman [Audio - Library]
  • Serpent & Dove by Shelby Mahurin [Kindle - Library]
  • A Good Girl's Guide to Murder by Holly Jackson [Kindle - Library]
  • Queen of Ruin by Tracy Banghart [Kindle - Library]
  • Witches Steeped in Gold by Ciannon Smart [Hardcover - Owlcrate]

2021 READING CHALLENGES: should be at 58%

Series Challenge: 11/10 series - 110% COMPLETED 6/22
