I read cozy and historical mysteries, a bit of Paranormal/UF, and to mix it up, I read science and gardening books on occasion.
I'm so far behind, life is close to lapping me at this point, both in the virtual and real worlds. The good news is - I finally got a bingo! Woot! Progress!
In other news, I went away for a girls-reading weekend in historic Castlemaine last weekend and picked up a few books, while MT and our beekeeper friend wrangled a swarm that took up residence in our orange tree earlier in the week. Separate posts on those adventures are forthcoming.
In actual bingo related news, while I have at this point only the one bingo, I'm just two books away from a reading blackout, so while I've been MIA in general, I have, at least been reading. I'd have blackout already, but I fell down a Kate Daniels reading vortex of which I've only just surfaced from; 16 books back to back, and I'm not burned out, which is a compliment to the authors.
For my BookLikes tracking post, I'm going to rely on what I did last year, building an overall image as boxes are called.

Squares are greyed out until they're called.
Called squares will be full-strength.
Read but not called squares will be greyed out below.
Once a square has been called and read, I'll move that piece from below to cover the square.
My markers this year are pieces of a full image, seen here:

My tentative plan for what I'm reading. I think there's going to be a lot of re-reads in the mix, given my current mood. After I've read for a square, I'll hyperlink to the review.
