For the month of October, I read/listened to 18 books and am currently on 168 of 200 for Goodreads Challenge and 102 of 110 for Audiobook Challenge. No cable and the readathon helped catch me up. As many of you know, I’ve been trailing between 6 and 7 books behind since April. As for my reviews, I caught up this past week and even scheduled posts for January 2023! Have you signed up for the HoHoHo readathon? I am working on challenges now and getting excited. Stay Caffeinated.

    Yay for getting caught up on your reading goals! I’m ahead on Goodreads but behind of personal goals. I think I over planned a bit and won’t make that mistake for 2023! I hope you’ve had a great week!

  3. vidya

    that is an impressive number!! I am not good at keeping track and while I am not sure about 18 books, if I i count the picture books too, then it is more!!

  5. Lorna

    18 books in one month is amazing! You know you can change the final amount on your Goodreads challenge easily. Like change to 175. Just a thought.

  6. sjhigbee

    That’s an impressive total for October, Kimberly – congratulations. I hope the coming week is a good one for you.

  9. Rachel @Waves of Fiction

    Oh, wow! You really did catch up and get ahead! I wish I could say the same! I hope to do some serious reading this week, but we’ll see. As long as the renovations are still ongoing it seems something always needs my help or attention. :/

    Nice reading in October. I don’t think I’ve ever had a review ready two months in advance.
    Hope you have a wonderful week and Happy Reading!

  12. Alicia

    Wow! I wish I could schedule posts that far in advance. A few days in advance is all I can muster, lol.

  14. Meezan

    I need to get better at scheduling posts ahead of time. I did really well with that when I first started my blog a few months ago. I’ll have to take a look at the HoHoHo Read-a-thon. Sounds like fun!! 🙂

  18. Anne - Books of My Heart

    You are doing well on your challenges. I like it much better when I am caught up or ahead. I do the empty shells of my next year posts for regulars like the Sunday post, Series on Saturday and the challenge posts like Library Love, and the Read-along. I try to get the post set up whenever I receive an ARC so with everything I just have to fill in the review or the details. I started it when one blogger had a Blog Ahead event in November. I find August is a better blog ahead time for me because it’s too hot to do anything much outside.

      That’s a great idea and I have templates for my regular posts too, but I don’t always keep up……I’d have to update every day or two and sometimes I remember, others – not so much. 🙂

  21. Wendy

    Wow, you really did catch up! Thanks for the reminder about the readathon. I want to do this one.

  22. Lynn

    The HoHoHo Readathon always looks fun to join but I never end up having enough time to actually do so.

    Have a great week!

  23. Lover of Romance

    I am sorry that you have been behind on your reading challenge, I was behind in April, but since my meds started working, I have been in a reading frenzy haha Hope you find a way to get caught up and meet your goals. I see you got that Lori Foster book, I hope you enjoy that one.

    Have a fun reading week!

  26. Jodie

    Good for you to get caught up on your reviews Kimberly! I hope you have a wonderful week ahead!

  30. A Voracious Reader

    Way to go!! I lowered my GR goal to 50 and I’m *still* not there yet. But I’m close thanks to some monster porn. This year has sucked on so many levels. At least I knocked out 3 of my 12 reviews.

  31. Lola

    Sounds like you’re doing well for your reading goals this year, that’s nice the readathon helped, less nice about the cable not working. I hope you’ll have a good week!

  32. Emma @ Words And Peace

    Congrats on your amazing catching up. I’m also just 2 books away from my 2022 goal, though my total was much lower than you: 120 counting print and audio together

  33. Jessica @ a GREAT read

    Glad you’re getting in better places with your challenges! That’s always good! I finally met my goals last month for the few challenges I signed up in. Already surpassed my Goodreads goal which is good since my last few Fridays I wasn’t able to read at all!

    Nice new reads! Those are new to me ones but I hope you enjoy them all!

    Here’s my StS

    Have a GREAT day!

    You are acing it Kimberly! Already planning posts for 2023? I confess that I am behind on blogging this week because of a migraine but I hope next week will be different! Have a great Sunday!

  38. Emily @ Budget Tales Book Blog

    That’s a great amount of books! I have managed to complete my goal of 97 books. I wasn’t even sure that I would make that! Posts for January 2023 is scary – I can’t believe how fast time goes.

    Have a great week ahead!

    Scheduled posts for January? I’m super impressed. I’m scheduled out through my Sunday morning post (which goes live in 3 hours), and I just got that one scheduled. I’ve got more written but not scheduled yet.

    Sounds like you still had a great reading month in October. I’m so curious on how you manage to plan so far ahead.. I’m a big planner but just don’t seem to be able to get ahead more than a week.
    OMG.. is it HoHoHo time already? Crazy!! I’m so excited.

  44. Greg

    HoHoHo means the holiday season is here! Or close anyway. I love this time of year. 🙂 I’ve ben starting to look at some holday themed books now that spooky time is over. Great job on the reviews!!

    Have a nice weekend 🙂
