*Platypire Read-A-Thon* December '18

December is here, and partially over, but I'm getting to this sooner this month than I did last month, so progress! I'm all about progress right now, and with any luck I'll be able to stick to this progress thing I've got going on for a few months, or maybe permanently (probably not permanently). Without further ado, let's see what I've got planned for December (and what I've got already accomplished).

I've only added nine books to my TBR for this month (if we don't count the not listed Christmas books that a part of me is still hoping to have time to read before Christmas). I'm really hoping to finish reading half of the books on my currently reading shelf before the month is over (because that would allow me to meet my original Goodreads challenge goal, which I amended back in January). Theoretically it's probably possible, especially if I'm choosy about which books I attack and go for the ones that I'm closer to finished with to begin with.

So how many books do you think I'm going to get read, and more importantly reviewed, this month? Do you think I can post a review every day and really make a dent in that Needs Reviewed list? - Katie
