Here is my monthly (and year-long cumulative) update.
GOODREADS: My goal is to read/listen to at least 25 books in 2025. I’ve read/listen to a total of 22 books for the 2025 year. I’ve read/listened to a total of 6 book in July. You can check out my Goodreads Reading Challenge here.

July Theme Back in My Day… (suggestions: Historical, Old School, etc…)
I picked Kiss of Steal. It’s Historical Steampunk Paranormal Romance. Published back in 2012 and I added it to my TBR back in 2013. I feel this one was perfect for the theme.
Non Theme:
Amber Gambler published in 2014.
The Russian Cage published in 2022.
Resonance Surge published in 2023.
My Goal is 12 or more & to do the Theme’s each month
I’ve read/listened to 12 books for this challenge.
Read Total of 4 (July) / Completed Julys Theme

I love a great blurb. With a stunning cover quickly after.
I’m glad to see you back into reading after getting things settled with the move and the house through you off for a bit. Looking good for finishing your goals this year. 🙂
I seem to be on track to complete if not exceed my goals. I’ve done well with audiobooks this year and I think that has helped me to get back into reading.
As always it’s nice of you to visiting.
Yay for being almost done on your Goodreads challenge! Looks like you made some progress for most of your challenges if you weren’t already ahead.
I’m doing pretty well this year on my challenges. I’m excited to see how high over my original goal I’ll go. Thanks Lisa for visiting and chatting. Happy Reading!
This is great nice job
Thanks Rochelle. Happy Reading!
You are doing a great job! Glad you have some of the mojo back.
It’s been nice listening to so many books and keeping up with my challenges.
Thanks for visiting!
I listened to 6 audiobooks for the mini challenge! I love my library 🙂
You’re doing great on your challenges!!! I am doing well on some, and left a few in the dust lol
Great job on the mini challenge for the library. Sometimes we can’t keep up with all the challenges we want to try. Keep up the book love. Thanks for visiting!
