This summer COYER runs from June 20 to September 4, so plenty of time for reading. You can also read any book for the challenge, be it physical, e-book or audiobooks.
This is my very first challenge ever... so wish me luck!
My goals:
- Read 10 of my owned physical books (I have 4 shelves full of books I haven't read so putting a dent in the number would be great).
- Read 10 ARCs/ebooks and increase my Netgalley Approval Ratio.
- Join the Scavenger Hunt and complete at least 10 of the items.
- Participate in at least 2 of the read-a-thons.
- Join in with some of the Facebook activities.
- And lastly, I plan to join Twitter soon so if I get my head around it I will try to join at least 1 Twitter party.

It's my first time participating as well. I am not huge in the twitter-universe, only creating an account earlier this year. I feel like I am still learning how to use it correctly. I look forward to "seeing" you around.
ReplyDeleteI hope we both do well with our goals then. I'm trying to find a quieter week to set up Twitter so that I can take my time. I look forward to seeing you too. :)
