2012 is over

2012 is over.

I am looking back at a great reading year. I have never before taken part in reading challenges or even kept a count of the books I have read. I have really liked doing both.

I have taken part in 24 Reading Challenges of these I have completed 22 challenges.

The two challenges I failed to complete were Where Are You Reading Challenge, and Six Degrees of Separation Challenge.
Where Are You Reading Challenge was about reading from the 50 States in the US. Unfortunately I found that very difficult and I read a lot from Britain but just not enough from the States so I gave up.
Six Degrees of Separation Challenge was about going from one author to the next from author reviews in the books. I didn't feel that all reviews had transferred from the physical book to the e-book and it was too much work.
These two challenges I will not try  again.

The other 22 challenges I have enjoyed and I will be taking part in several of them again in 2013 plus some new ones.

HAPPY NEW YEAR

Goodreads 2012 Reading Challenge Finished

Goodreads 2012 Reading Challenge.

This has been a brilliant way to follow my reading. I like that I can add the book when I start it, update as many times as I need to during my reading and that the books automatically go to my read list when I mark them finished.
My personal goal for this challenge was to read 110 books in 2012. My book number 110 was  A Reckless Witch by Debora Geary that I finished on the 26th of October. I have read all in all 146 for this challenge.

2012 Witches & Witchcraft Reading Challenge Finished

Thank you Melissa for hosting this challenge.

I have so enjoyed this challenge as I really like witchy books. My goal for this challenge was to read 11-15 books but I reached that goal already after a few months. I then decided to go for the highest level of 16-20 books but I also reached that goal with no problem.
I finished book number 20: The Calling by Kelley Armstrong on the 10th of August.
I read 41 books for this challenge.

All my posts are HERE.
THIS is the list of books for this challenge

Why Buy the Cow? Reading Challenge 2012 Finished

Thank you Missie from The Unread Reader for hosting.

This has been a fun challenge and I think I now have tons of free books on my Kindle. Several times a week my husband will say "You have bought more books" and yes I have but the great thing is they were mostly free. I check Books on The Knob nearly every day.
Most of my free books are from Amazon but I also got a lot from Smashwords.
As expected there are a lot of books which are not great but there are also a lot of free books that have made me pay for and read more books from some of the authors.

My goal was to read 12 books for this challenge and that goal I reached with Awakening by Karice Bolton on the 31st of July. At the end of December I have now read 28 books.

My Posts are HERE
THIS is the list of the 28 books I have read.

2012 Ebook Challenge Finished

Thank you Sarah from workadayreads for this reading challenge.

This has been a brilliant challenge for me as I live in a place where it is not that easy to buy books in book stores. Up till end of June I lived in a place completely without a book store and only an extremely tiny library with erratic or non existent opening hours. Now, since the end of August, I live in a place with a small book store and a big library. I have had some kind of ebook reader since 2008 and absolutely love it.

My goal for this challenge was to reach the level of Server - read 100 ebooks.
I reached this goal on the 26th of October with the book Reckless Witch. I have read 134 books for this challenge.

All the posts for this challenge are HERE.
THIS is the list for all the books I have read for this challenge.
