Reading Challenge Update 5


I am racing through this challenge! I'm doing so well that there are just 2 books left on my list, and one of them I am in the process of reading right now.

Since the last update, the books I have read are:

  • Let's Talk by Bill Crowder
  • Moving Beyond Failure by Bill Crowder
  • God's Mountains, Meadows and More by Robin Jones Gunn
  • The Circus Collection by Enid Blyton
16 out of 18 is great, and there are still 5 months left of the year!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

As you can see from my Bingo card, I'm getting those boxes filled! 2 columns done!

The 3 boxes that I filled since my last update are:
  • Remind you of someone you love: Sisterchicks in Gondolas by Robin Jones Gunn
  • You loved as a child: The Circus Collection by Enid Blyton
  • Your best friend recommends: Knowing God by David Egner
As a child, who didn't want to run away to the circus?! I'm not sure that I did exactly, but going to see a circus was on my wish list (I have seen one since then). In The Circus Collection, Jimmy does just that! Joins the circus, along with his family.

As for the rest of the squares, you'll just have to wait and see!

Reading Challenges Update 2

I've been having fun with my 2015 Bingo Reading Challenge!

The hunt has been on for books to fit the categories and for some of them I still haven't figured out with book to read, but that's okay because it's still early in the year.


So the books for the next squares are:
  • Makes you cry: Not My Will by Francena H Arnold
  • Has a child main character: Swallow Me, Now! by Melissa Gijsbers
  • Is a classic you've never read: Wives and Daughters by Elizabeth Gaskell
I'm currently reading one more (you'll have to wait for my next update), but then I'm all out of ideas, at least for now.

I've also made a little progress on my 2015 TBR Pile Challenge.

3 more books have been read for this with another in progress and one about to be started.

  • Spoken For by Robin Jones Gunn and Alyssa Joy Bethke
  • It's Just You and Me, Lord by Marion Stroud
  • The Spotlight of Faith by Bill Crowder
This takes me to 6 of 18 read - I'm 1/3 through the pile related to the challenge. My TBR pile did grow recently with a purchase of books during a recent sale at my favourite book store.
