*Platypire Read-A-Thon* November Results


November is over which means it's time for my November results. I feel like I didn't get as much reviewing done on the blog as I'd hoped to do, because I got busy trying to finish book club reads on a shortened timeline than normal because of Thanksgiving. Two of my bookclubs that met at the very end of the month in October, had meetings a week earlier in November, back to back. My two mid-week meetings are usually over a week apart, but in October and November, they were back to back for a couple reasons, and that just really put some reading strain on me that I didn't sign up for when I joined them. But it's fine. Anyway, let's see how I actually did this month.

So I read six books that weren't originally on my list, but four of those were audiobooks, and the other two were for a reading challenge group I'm in on Facebook, so that's honestly like really good. Then I started five books that weren't on my list at the beginning of the month, but three of them are audiobooks, one is a library loan that came in, and the final one was going to be on my list for December anyway and I only just started it on like the 29th. Although I didn't review more books than I read in November, it was close, and I feel I did pretty good sticking to my list overall, since the majority of the books outside of my original list were/are audio. Hopefully in December I'll do even better. - Katie
