You got a lot done in November! I can hardly believe it’s already the end of the year and the end of a decade.
Tyler H. Jolley
Oh snap, Kimba! I didn’t even realize it was the end of a decade. I’m glad you pointed it out! Congratulations on meeting your goals!
Katherine @ I Wish I Lived in a Library
I’m with you on sweeping this year out the door and good riddance to it! Congrats on making your goodreads challenge! I’m not making my original one and probably not the 2nd one I set but I’m definitely making the 3rd one! Have a great week!
Maureen @ Maureen's Books

It is rather surprising that we have hit December already. November sped past. I do hope things lighten up for you as we celebrate this special season and head into a new year.
Enjoy your reading/listening this week!

Maire @ Stringchronicity
Good work on meeting your challenges! 211 books out of a goal of 200 is awesome…and you still have another month to go 🙂
Nicci @ Sunny Buzzy Books
21 books is incredible! Well done! And well done on hitting no your goodreads goal!
I’m very much looking forward to this month’s festivities and to the New Year! 2019 has been a bit blah,
Angela (Angel's Guilty Pleasures)
Have a wonderful December. My reading for Nov. was slow, but I had some nice one’s. Holiday’s come around and my reading drops, but I do watch a lot of backlist TV shows and all the fun Holiday Movies. ^_^
Kristin (Book Sniffers Anonymous)
Nice job on reaching your reading goal. Every time I log into Goodreads that meter mocks me. LoL I’m so ridiculously under my goal right now.
Lark @ The Bookwyrm's Hoard
Congratulations on surpassing your Goodreads goal already! That’s awesome!
I hope you and your family had a good Thanksgiving. And I wish you a very happy preparing-for-the-holidays December!
Sarah
Congrats on exceeding your Goodreads goal! I still need 3 more books to meet my goal of 70 books. I don’t think I will have an issue meeting this goal.
Mary Kirkland
I can only hope that this next year will be better for you.
Anne
Of course you handled the challenges and ahead of schedule – you’re awesome. I hope your holiday weekend is lovely and December is the best month of the year yet for you!

Congrats on completing your challenges, Kimberly?
Whitney @ Sincerely, Whitney
That Nora Roberts’ book looks so good. It has been YEARS since I have read anything by her. I may just have to pick this series up.
LORI CASWELL
I am so jealous you finished your reading goal already. I need to have a great December to make mine. I also am read to sweep this decade out the door with hopes of better years ahead.
Have a great week!
Michelle@Because Reading
I am going to help you sweep 2019 out the door. I am hoping a new decade will finally be the year for me. I have my finger crossed. I still suck at reading but awesome job! I am determined to not lower my goodreads goal but I know I wont make it so I might.
Have a wonderful week, Kim! Happy Reading! xx
Jessica @ a GREAT read
Oh nice! Glad you met your reading challenges! While I knew I had to reduce my number greatly, and I did surpass it, I am still wayyyy lower than in years past so it kind of hurts! Lol.
Hope you enjoy the new reads!
Here’s my StS
Have a GREAT day!

Kimberly I really hope 2020 will be better for you!
A Voracious Reader
I’m with you on this year. I’m going to ride Roomba’s ass right out the door with it. Not as horrible as last year, but bad, so it can just go out with the trash. Hard to believe, not only is the year almost over, but the decade, too! Wut?! I hope you have a great week, Kim!
Tanya @ Girl Plus Books
I think a lot of us are ready to usher 2019 out the back door and welcome a fresh start in 2020!
Lover of Romance
Yes I am ready to sweep 2019 under the rug and start on 2020!!! Hope you had a great Thanksgiving and enjoy December with your family. Hope you enjoy that Nora Roberts book.
Jennifer | Book Den
Wow, you smashed your goal!
Yvonne
Congrats on the Goodreads challenge. I didn’t do so well this year, but I’ll try again next year. Have a great week!
Deb Nance at Readerbuzz
It’s funny how one can get so tired of a year by October or November, and the new year can look so promising. I hope that the new year will be a time for sweeping out the old and bringing in the new.
Vi @Inkvotary
Well, I don´t understand what you mean with “final month of a decade” but I hope that you will have a much more pleasant time in 2020. And for the last four weeks of the year, I hope you and your family can at least enjoy some peaceful moments before the New Year has arrived.
Vi @Inkvotary
Sometimes … Now I get what you mean. Yes, with 2020 we enter a new decade! Oh boy … *lol*
Shelleyrae @ Book’d Out
Congrats on meeting your Goodreads goal early Kimberley
Wishing you a great reading week
Mere
Oh man, I can’t believe that we’ll be going into a new decade! it seems unbelievable!
sjhigbee
I’m always awed at how many books you manage to read, Kimberly. I, too, would like to get this year over and done with. The huge snag is that with the political situation – I’m not convinced we’ve got much to look forward to, either…
Here’s hoping 2020 is MUCH better!
Flora
I can’t believe that it’s December already! Thanks for reminding me that January will start a new DECADE too! Damn, I feel old. 😉
Congratulations on reaching (and exceeding) your reading targets, Kimberly.
Hope you enjoy the rest of your weekend. x
Amy

Laura Thomas
I need to update my Goodreads lists. so my challenge will be correct. I keep forgetting to add the physical books I’ve finished. That Nora Roberts book looks good!
Laurel-Rain Snow
You always impress me with all the books you read. Enjoy December!
Rachel
I can’t wait to read A Madness of Sunshine. Love Singh. Can’t believe the year is almost over!
Greg
Wow- it’s weird to think of this as the last month of the DECADE, but yeah I guess that’s true! Anyway congrats on your Goodread challenge- and hope you have a fab weekend!
