I’ve had an excellent start to my reading this year. It surprises me a little because I had a deadline and a book of short stories that slowed me down. There is just something about collections of short stories that refuses to let me rush. However, I made up for lost time in the last week of the month.

Andi is running monthly check-ins for the #ReadMyOwnDamnBooks challenge (there’s still time to join!), so I’ve decided it would be useful to take a look at my progress as part of my usual TBR reports. My goal for the challenge was to make sure 60% of the books I read this year is from Mt TBR. I’m currently sitting on 55%, which I feel isn’t a bad effort. I started out well. Then I was gifted with tickets to Contact2016 (eeee!!! I’m going to NatCon!), and I felt it was necessary to be familiar with work by the Guests of Honour. Leife Shallcross was lovely enough to loan me her entire Ben Aaronovitch collection.
