Reading challenges January Update

I can't believe how fast 2016 is going! I still feel like I should be celebrating Christmas or something.

 

Because I'm still on break from school and have plenty of free time I was able to make a pretty good dent in my challenges for this year, this is great because once College starts up next week I'll probably have less time for reading.

The Goodreads Reading Challenge 

After the progress I made this month I think I'll bump my goal up to 100 books for 2016

Young Adult Book Club's A-Z Reading Challenge 2016 

For this Challenge I have to choose either the first word in the title of the books or the author’s name (first or last) should correspond with a letter in the alphabet. You should omit “a” and “the” in the titles; letters Q, X and Z can be positioned anywhere in the titles or author names.
