Book Bingo 2016


New and improved for 2016! My goal for this New Year is to read 65 books (which is just one less than what I read this year). Since I recently discovered a love for audio books I feel like this will be an easy challenge to complete. So, in addition to the 25 Book Bingo books, I have an additional checklist on the side. If your goal is smaller, just black out what you don't want to use :) 

As for the rules, last year there was some confusion:
1. You can only use a book once, even if it would work for multiple squares.
2. You don't have to report back to me -- but I'd love to know what you're reading.
3. Audio books count, physical books count, eBooks count. (Picture books don't really count, except for that one square)

Looking for some book recommendations? Check out what I read in 2015 on Goodreads! Become my friend, I love new Goodreads friends!

Book Review: The Young Elites


Why Did I Pick It Up: Our YA librarian recommended the series to me

Book Review: An Ember in the Ashes


Why Did I Pick It Up: Many of my GoodReads friends had added it to their "to read" lists

Book Review: Six of Crows


Why Did I Pick It Up: Um, I didn't, it was delivered to my Kindle at midnight because I couldn't wait for it to come out ... or because I love Leigh Bardugo ... or because the book sounded AWESOME
