The first day of a new month, so it’s day 1 of #augustshelfawareness - August TBR. 📚 I tried for a less ambitious pile this month. Two of these are review copies from LibraryThing, so I should at least try to get those read. 📚 #augustshelfawareness #augustphotochallenge #instabooks #readersofinstagram #bookaddict #bookstagram #tbr #augusttbr #theremarkableordinary #frederickbuechner #norsemythology #neilgaiman #lostboy #shelleyhrdlitschka #inthefirstcircle #aleksandrsolzhenitsyn #bewarethatgirl #teresatoten

Day 31 of #julyshelfawareness is July Wrap Up 📚 I finished only five books this month, none of which were on my July TBR. My favourite of these was ‘Astrophysics for People in a Hurry’ by Neil deGrasse Tyson, although I didn’t rush through it. I also managed to restart the book on the right, which is one that will take me some time to get through. 📚 #julyshelfawareness #julyphotochallenge #bookaddict #bookstagram #instabooks #julywrapup #neildegrassetyson #astrophysicsforpeopleinahurry #inthefirstcircle #aleksandrsolzhenitsyn

Day 4 of #AlltheBooksJan - Bookish Goals & Resolutions 📚📖📚 I have set out to read at least 75 books again this year. Last year I managed 77, so 75 is achievable. I also signed up for four different reading challenges, just to make it a little bit more interesting. One of my resolutions for 2018 is to clear up my ‘Currently Reading’ shelf at both GoodReads and the 50 Book Pledge. Both contain books I started long ago and never finished. So I need to work out which ones I have no intention of finishing and remove them from the shelves. Another resolution is to restart and finish the book in the above picture (‘In the First Circle’ by Alessandro Solzhenitsyn). I will not let it beat me this time! I’ll need to use the notebook to keep track of things when I’m reading it, though. 📖📚🇷🇺📚📖 #AlltheBooksJan #bookstagram #bookaddict #instabooks #januarybookchallenge #readinggoals #resolutions #inthefirstcircle #aleksandrsolzhenitsyn
