Clean Slate Read-A-Thon | Wrap Up
The Clean Slate Read-A-Thon is hosted by Novel Ink, Lost in Lit & Latte Nights Reviews! So what exactly is the Clean Slate Read-A-Thon? This Read-A-Thon is only for books that we didn’t get to in 2015. Any 2015 release we never got to read. We want to start this year off with a clean slate so let’s get those 2015 releases off our TBR and make run for all of those 2016 releases! The Clean Slate Read-A-Thon will be held from Sunday, January 10th at 12am (EST) till Sunday, January 17th at 11:59pm (EST).The Clean Slate Read-A-Thon really helped me take some of those older books off my TBR list. I'd say that I had another very successful Read-A-Thon! But now it's time to wrap everything up. Below I'm just going to post a recap of everything for the past week.
MY ORIGINAL TBR (1/10):
I have quite a few 2015 releases still on my TBR list that I just wasn't able to get to or finish last year, so I thought that the Clean Slate Read-A-Thon would be a great opportunity to get some of them off my list.
UPDATE (1/11):
The End Game is waiting to be read! |
I FINISHED Ascenders on Sunday! |
I will be starting Seduce tonight! |
Imperfect Love is waiting to be read! |
BOOKISH RESOLUTIONS + UPDATE (1/12):
Today's mini-challenge is Bookish Resolutions hosted by Novel Ink!
BOOKISH RESOLUTIONS
There is one BIG resolution that I have that encompasses Reading, Reviewing and Blogging. I need to work on my time management. Last year, I got so behind on A LOT of my reading and reviewing. Blogging wasn't so bad, but there were a few times when some posts didn't go up on time. So better time management is my resolution.
Started reading The End Game last night! I'm almost half done! |
I FINISHED Ascenders on Sunday! |
I FINISHED Seduce on Monday! |
Imperfect Love is waiting to be read! |
UPDATE (1/13):

BOOK COVER HUNT
Since I can't post my answers here, I'm just going to repost the cover fragments so you know what we are looking for. All of these are from 2016 releases!
I couldn't figure out #10 and #11. I looked through Goodreads 2 or 3 times and I just couldn't find them.
UPDATE (1/16): I finally got #10 and #11!!
