For the first time in years, I actually completed my Goodreads reading challenge! Thinking back to 2018 when I was so burnt out I could barely make it through a twitter thread, completing 20 books this year feels incredible.

2023 Reading Challenge

So, anyone else notice problems with #Goodreads counting your books wrong for the reading challenge? I just noticed because I mainly use #Bookwyrm these days, but I still add books as read in Goodreads.

Turns out, there are a couple of books I read this year that don't turn up in the Goodreads reading challenge overview, but properly show as read if I search for them. Bookwyrm is counting everything correctly in its reading challenge. Not that I care much, but this is the first year I've seen this happen because of my switch to Bookwyrm.

Edit: I think it might have to do with adding books without a reading start date (I think the missing books were all added directly as "Read" without ever being in the "Currently Reading" section).

Still on my TBR:
*Engineering topic: Hacking Darwin by Jamie Metzel
*Discomfortable Read: I dragged my feet on this. I still haven’t picked a book. I don’t get to start my bonus true crime prompt pick until the discomfort read is finished. #ReadingChallenge2023
#TBR
I’m behind on my nonfiction reading challenge, 8 of 12 complete. *Essay collection: I’m taking my time with Toni Morrison’s The Source of Self Regard by listening to the audiobook during my work commute. I need to listen to an essay and then sit with it for a bit.
*Social Science: I’m listening to Prisoners of Geography by Tim Marshall. #ReadingChallenge2023

Zweiundvierzig's review of Tief eingeschneit (Chief Inspector Armand Gamache, #2)

4/5: Nach dem ersten Band der Gamache-Reihe hatte ich eigentlich wenig Lust, diese fortzusetzen, allenfalls eine Rezension, dass Band zwei (und die dann Folgenden) ein deutlicher Schritt wären, hat mich dann doch dazu gebracht. Und: ja! Band zwei liest sich schon deutlich besser als Band eins. Vielleicht liegt‘s daran, dass einige der Protagonisten schon vertrauter sind, vielleicht ist einfach der Schreibstil weiter entwickelt - keine Ahnung, ist auch egal, die Hauptsache ist, dass dieser Band schon wirklich prima zu lesen ist. Gerade jetzt im tiefsten Herbst mit fallenden Temperaturen kommt...

Aber nun, was wird das offiziell letzte Buch meiner #readingchallenge2023 ? Ich hab jetzt zwei sprachlich ziemlich anspruchsvolle Bücher gelesen, auch mit ner Menge Politik & Gewalt drin. Ich denke, ich würde gern bissle was fluffigeres lesen. Ideen? (Ich lese deutsch, englisch und französisch.)
#buchtipp gesucht.
I read 9 books this year so far (between 200 pages but mostly 300-500 pages books, without counting mangas, and mostly not in my native language) so I think I will do the 52 books reading challenge this year 🥹 feel free to add me on goodreads if u want to ❤️ I'm Kurumayu there #52bookreadingchallenge #reading #goodreads #reader #52bookclub #52booksin23 #52booksin52weeks #ReadingChallenge #readingchallenge2023

📚 Just finished reading Legendborn by Tracy Deonn, and I can't recommend it enough! If you're into an Arthurian retelling with YA/Fantasy/Mythology/Magic elements to it, then this one is definitely for you.
