The Historical Fiction Reading Challenge is never really much of a challenge since I adore hist-fic. It's always fun to set a goal and smash it, though :)

Yeah, I'm not sure what happened to the Book Bingo RC. It looks like the host was updating their blog and just never finished. Who knows?

Thanks for the vote of confidence and thanks, as always, for coming by and commenting, Deanna!

Ha ha. I no longer make New Year's resolutions for that same reason. My reading goals are always loose goals. If I achieve them, great; if I don't, no big deal. I just happen to be doing really well at them this year, but that's not something that happens every go-around!

Thanks, as always, for coming by and commenting, Sam!

200 books IS a lot! I basically have to finish a book every other day to reach that goal. Luckily, I have lots of free time on my hands :)

Thanks, as always, for coming by and commenting, Lydia!

I hope so! I'm really excited to FINALLY get it all set up. There aren't any others in my neighborhood, so I think it will be a fun addition.

Thanks, as always, for coming by and commenting, Astilbe!

Nice! I'm sure you'll smash them all.

I'm a chronic reading challenge over-committer! LOL. Most years, I don't finish half of the challenges I take on. I just happen to be doing really well at it this year. Go, me!

Thanks, as always, for coming by and commenting, Nicole!

It is a lot of challenges and some of them have definitely been tougher than others. I enjoy doing them, though. It's a fun way to expand my reading horizons and make my reading life more entertaining!

Thanks, as always, for coming by and commenting, Bree!

I'm honored that of all the reading challenges you could have done, you chose mine! It's been a fun one to do and to host. I'm glad you're enjoying it as well.

Thanks, as always, for coming by and commenting, Lark!

Me too! I smile every time I see an LFL while I'm out driving around. I live right by an elementary school, so I plan to stock mine with lots of children's books :)

Thanks, as always, for coming by and commenting, Vero!

Ha ha. No worries! You can still join the challenge if you'd like. It's a very easy, laidback kind of thing so there's no pressure it all. It's just a fun way to share our love of bookish books :)

I will post about my LFL when it's functional. I was hoping to have it up by Halloween, but we'll see. We're still waiting on some HOA stuff before we can get going with the yard remodel.

Thanks, as always, for coming by and commenting, Carol!

The 52 Club one has been a bit of a toughie for me! Some of the prompts are stumping me, especially the "Doesn't Fit Any of the Other 51 Prompts" one. The only book I could think of that works for this one is a book of scripture. LOL. Good luck to both of us on finishing this one!

Thanks, as always, for coming by and commenting, CurlyGeek!

I'm hopeful that I will be able to finish all of my challenges, but we'll see. I still have a lot of books to go! I'm hoping I'll be able to sneak in a few spooky lite reads in there, too. I enjoy ghost stories and mystery/thriller novels, but nothing TOO scary. I'm a wimp!

Thanks for popping in!

I'm doing much better on my reading challenges than I usually do! LOL. The prompts must have been easier this year or something...

Thanks, as always, for coming by and commenting, Carla!

I have a love/hate relationship with my HOA! I had to laugh when they told us that the residents in our neighborhood had voted against LFLs because they would cause traffic jams. I wish! A neighborhood that has traffic problems because of books sounds like the perfect place to live to me :) The president said she didn't agree and would personally make sure my LFL was approved, so that's good news.

Thanks, as always, for coming by and commenting, Sammie!

It's an addiction! I probably need an intervention...

Thanks, as always, for coming by and commenting, Ronyell!

I'm so excited to get my LFL up and running! Hopefully, it will happen before the end of the year. Fingers crossed.

Thanks, as always, for coming by and commenting, Emma!

Ha ha. Well, I have a lot of free time on my hands. I'm a stay-at-home mom with teenaged and young adult children who are at school or work all day, I don't watch tv, I don't have a lot of other hobbies, I read quickly, and I always have an audiobook going when I drive, exercise, do housework, etc. Basically, I'm ALWAYS reading :)

Thanks, as always, for coming by and commenting, Nicole!

Me too! I love seeing them around town. It just makes me happy :)

Thanks, as always, for coming by and commenting, Lectrice!

Me too. It's been sitting in my hallway in boxes for far too long!

Thanks, as always, for coming by and commenting, Kasey!

Every year, I set my goal at 200 books. Sometimes I make it, sometimes I don't! It's just fun to compete with myself to see if I can read more books than I did the last year.

Thanks, as always, for coming by and commenting, Rissi!

It really is a tough one! The prompts seemed easier this year, at least for me, so I guess that's why I'm actually going to finish it this year. LOL.

Thanks, as always, for coming by and commenting, Louise!

I'm really hoping we can get the yard redo and the LFL installation done this year. When I get it up and running, I'll circle back to you for advice on how to run it well!

Thanks, as always, for coming by and commenting, Deb!

I just love the idea of a big, neighborhood book exchange! I hope my LFL gets lots of use :)

Thanks, as always, for coming by and commenting, Erin!

Ha ha. I have a system for tracking challenges. I track my progress both on my blog and on a spreadsheet. It helps me focus on completing them, especially toward the end of the year.

Thanks, as always, for coming by and commenting, Tracy!

Let's see, I still need: Arkansas, Illinois, Nevada, South Dakota, Virginia, and Wyoming. Which ones do you still need? Arkansas is the one I always have the most trouble with!

This year, the POPSUGAR prompts have worked much better for me than in previous years. Like I said, this will be the first year I've ever completed it. There are a lot of prompts and yes, some of them are super hard!

Thanks, as always, for coming by and commenting, Sam!

Oh, there are TONS of reading challenges posted every year and every year I have to resist signing up for ALL of them! LOL. I thought I did pretty well picking *only* thirteen this year :)

Thanks, as always, for coming by and commenting, Emily!

It will be fun to FINALLY pull my LFL out of its boxes and get it all set up. I can't wait!

Thanks, as always, for coming by and commenting, Alicia!

I hope so too! One thing that will make it unique is that it will be constantly filled with new books since I get so many of them from publishers. After I read them, I can pass them on in like-new or very gently used condition. Usually, when I get books from LFLs, they're pretty beat up.
