November Group Read: The Final One

[kalloway]

It's the end of November! How did reading go this month?

And as related query- since this community is here and currently only being used annually, would anyone be interested in smaller/differently-structured group reads during the rest of the year? (Not necessarily run by me, if anyone else is interested.)

I hit my goal of dealing with 10 books from my declared list - I managed 3 of the 4 non-fiction and finished 6 of the original 10 fiction and decided to abandon a further 2 - making 11 rather than 10, I am also part way through reading a further one (The Cranford Chronices - I finished 2 of the 3 stories but am struggling with the third). In addition, I managed to finish 5 short non-fictions, 1 fiction and have almost finished another non-fiction (full length - and I finished it today - 1 December). I'm pleased with my overall progress.

As for future challenges, something like a monthly challenge to read a book that meets a specific criteria (genre, character, setting, has a day of the week in the title - whatever) might be fun but also adaptable to fit in any time during the month and with individual reading tastes. Or an ongoing bingo - I saw one of those a couple of years ago with a different challenge for each square and people completed in their own time. A challenge similar to this at a different time of year might be good too (run up to gift-giving has meant I've got through quite a lot of audio books but less of the paper ones as I've been crocheting a lot over the last couple of months).

\o/ Hooray~!

I hope a bunch of people volunteer to host different things. The only concrete-ish idea I have is to maybe read the oldest thing in the TBR pile during the last week of the year or something.
