Once Upon a Time Challenge Wrap Up

July 1, 2009 by Darlene


Okie dokie, I did very bad on this challenge but in my defense I thought it was going on until the end of the year, not just until June 20. Why I thought that, I don’t know but I did. Therefore I only managed to read two books.

Thankfully part of the challenge I joined was to read only one book and I read two. I had hoped to read five. However I still intend to read the others I had wanted to read. You can see my original post here if you like.

Here are the two books I did complete…

  • Keeper of Light and Dust by Natasha Mostert (new author to me)
  • Sea Changes by Gail Graham

One challenge down, several to go. lol.

    Don't you hate when that happens? "That" being losing track of which challenge ends when? 🙂 At least you got a couple of interesting books read!

    Memory and I joked that there should be two OuaT challenges in the year actually. ^-~ But, yes, 'longer' would be lovely.

    *hugs* You did lovely, hun. Don't go beating yourself up about it. As long as you enjoyed the books you did read, that's the important thing. ^-^

    Well, two books is better than no books, which is what I did with this one…lol.
    I joined this challenge, but didn't complete it.

    The time went by way too quickly for me as well and I didn't get to read as many as I hoped. You think you'll be joining again next year?

    Thanks everyone! I think what I might do is put the dates of the challenges under the pictures on my blog. That way at least it'll be there in front of me.

    Trish, yes I think I'll join again. With my luck, I still won't have read the books I got for the challenge so I can just pick up on those again. lol.

    Oops! Well, at least you read something for the challenge! I think putting the dates under the pics is a great idea.
