That’s us a quarter of the way through 2017 already! Crazy! I’m writing this a little early and scheduling it to post on the first as I’m going to be staying with a friend for a few days and I really can’t be bother to cart my laptop up to his. Lazy I know! Here’s what I’ve been up to on the blog during March.

Books Purchased

None! I’m not sure if I should be sad or proud about this. I’ve got ARCs beginning to stack up as when it comes to NetGalley at the moment I’m like a magpie spotting something shiny

Books Received

This month I received several books via Bookbridgr, and I won a signed copy of Deadly Game through a Twitter giveaway.

I also requested and was approved for more books on NetGalley than is good for me.

Challenge Progress

I’m also keeping track of all my reading challenges – The numbers won’t quite match the reviews on the blog as I’m behind in my reviewing – Ooops

Goodreads Challenge: 30/50

–

I’m happy with how this one is going, already upped by challenge number and I’m well ahead so I think I’ll up it again

British Books Challenge 2017: 12/12

–

I’ve hit my target yay! Admittedly it was the lowest option going but I’ll have to have a think about what I’m going to aim for now

---

2017 Cloak and Dagger Challenge: 15/15

–

Again I went for a low target so I’m going to have to rethink it. That said I’m actually surprised that out of the 30 books I’ve read only half have been crime fiction and thrillers, I suppose this means I’m widening my reading which is good, and I’ve picked up some fantastic YA books that have been recommended
