The blog has been quiet, I know, especially on the book front. April has not been a great month. As you may or may not know, I was in an accident on 29 March, in which my car was completely written off. So aside from the minor injuries I had, I was supremely...
30 Books into the Goodreads Challenge
Yes, so I've only read four books since my last update, but I thought it was a good opportunity to get back to multiples of five again. And I read two really great books recently and want everyone else to read them too. Manhunting by Jennifer Crusie was another one of...
Goodreads update: 5 audio books and a paperback
Whoopsies! I've read a total of 26 books by Sunday night - so much for doing this update after every five. I think it's fair to say my audio books fell in the "chick lit" category; I don't mean that in a bad way. It's just that they were lovely light reads, with the...
Belated Goodreads challenge update
I know! This update is more than a week overdue - I've already finished another three books (including the March paperback, but more about that in the next update). To recap on books 15 - 20: The Double Life of Anna Day by Louise Candish was a good old bit of...
2014 Goodreads Challenge 15/100

Update: 2014 Goodreads Challenge
It's been just over two weeks since my last book update. Five very diverse books later, I have completed 10% of this year's Goodreads challenge and stand three books ahead of schedule. This is what I've read: The Hypnotist's Love Story by Liane Moriarty was a good...
Books I’ve recently read
The year has kicked off with some great reads. In case you didn't know, my Goodreads challenge for this year is to read 100 books (you can add me as a friend if you're a GR member). I've also personally challenged myself to read at least one actual, tangible book -...
Goodreads challenge 2013 complete: 140 books!
I finally did it! Mostly audio, I will admit, because I'm all about the multitasking. 2013 Reading Challenge Martha has completed her goal of reading 140 books in 2013! hide 140 of 140 (100%) view books And these are the books I've read (a lot of zombies, a lot of...
Time for a book update, no?
I haven't written about the books I’ve read recently, because earlier in the year I was lured away from my audio companions by music, and I fell behind on my Goodreads challenge. I finally caught up again last night when I finished the fourth Stephanie Plum book (Four...
