Reading Challenge Update

It's been ages since I did a reading challenge update. Not a ton has happened, but I finished the "What as Animal Challenge" a few weeks ago with Hex Hall (cute black kitty on the cover).

What an Animal Challenge:
1. Gate to Kandrith - Nicole Luiken
2. Take the Reins - Jessica Burkhart
3. Thorn - Intisar  Khanani
4. Loss - Jackie Morse Kessler
5. The Guardian of Bastet - Jacqueline M. Battisti
6. Hex Hall - Rachel Hawkins

However, I took a look at the calendar and realized I still have a long way left to go on a few challenges. In fact, I've decided to give up on the Completely Contemp challenge, since I haven't even read any contemporary books yet this year. Instead, I'm going to make a serious attempt to complete the A-Z challenge (I have all my remaining books lined up). If there's still time remaining, I'm also going to take a shot at completing the TBR Challenge.

TBR Pile
1. Pride and Prejudice and Zombies - Jane Austen and Seth Grahame-Smith
2. The Keeper of the Isis Light - Monica Hughes
3. The Guardian of Isis - Monica Hughes
4. The Crystal Shard - R. A. Salvatore

TBR Pile Challenge

I'm not doing so good on this one. I choose Pride and Prejudice and Zombies, which I'm not particularly enjoying, but am struggling through. I think from now on, I will keep my Austen and my zombies separate. No Progress.








Completely Contemp Challenge

I'm kind of regretting joining this challenge. I'm pretty sure I entered just because the button was so pretty. We'll see how this one goes, but I think it's at the bottom of my list. No Progress.
