Something Old Wrap up

[fred_mouse]

I rather dropped the ball on this one, both in terms of meeting goals, and of remembering to post. What about the rest of you? Did you set a goal? Tell us all about the old books that you read, or thought about reading!

(Also: next episode in this four parter has been rescheduled to June, to give me a bit of time for current work deadlines to stop eating my motivation)

I had hopes of finishing three books, with a selection of three history non-fiction (progress on two), a re-read on a book I've not read in decades that i was partly through (progress), and several books I'd started and put down (I... might have DNFed one?). I did not. It was generally a slow reading month for me, given that I finished a total of five books, which included one novella (Fireheart Tiger, Aliette de Bodard, highly recommended), one collected comics volume, one graphic memoir, and two novels, one of which took me less than a week of commute time.

Sometimes we just have months where progress is slow. You might have not completed many but there was at least one good one so that's positive anyway.

Yeah, I'm not quite sure why this particular month was slow -- there doesn't appear to have been anything much chewing time. But as you say, there are slow months, and i was happy with progress, I just ran out of steam on the challenge!
