Mid-Year Reading Progress
Around this time of the year, I make a mid-year post on my reading progress so far. While reviewing my progress, I noticed something different this year. In past years, I found myself having read more than 100 books by this point. This year, however, I have yet to reach 100 books as of yet. I don't know how it happened, but I guess things slow down sometimes. This despite reading some picture books, short e-books and audiobooks, as well as a play recently completed in one day. I need two more to reach 100. I was considering postponing this post until I reached that many. But since I usually do this post at the end of June, habit forced me to do so again.
And as for my year-long reading challenges, I have only completed two so far, both during this month:
Finding authors beginning U and X proved the hardest. For X, I chose one who has X as a middle initial, since the letter can be in any part of the author's name (first, middle or last). I usually go by last names. The one I chose for U was taking me a while to get from the library, as it is on the bookmobile.

Thursday 13: More Stuff From Around the Internet
Colleen at The Thursday 13 holds a weekly blogging prompt where bloggers make a list of 13 things on Thursdays. The topic is for you to choose. The blog host doesn't have any official graphics to display on the Thursday 13 posts, so I decided to whip one up myself. 🙂
