Summer Bingo Checklist
12:30 PM
3 months ago, I participated in the Spring bingo, and while I didn't do really great, I really really enjoyed it. So I decided to join the Summer bingo, with a mission to cross every single box. As you can see, I failed. I'm 2 boxes short, and even though I already plan those books, I just can't get to them on time. College turns out to take a lot of time, it was fun, but I barely have any time to read!

I completed 23 boxes and 8 bingos.
Now this arises a question of whether I would participate in the fall bingo or not. Unfortunately, I don't think so. With college starting, I have to adjust with living alone and the college life, and while I know this is only for fun, the competitive side of me feel really pressured with this challenge. I think I would take reading easily for the rest of the year :)

Oh wow, that's a crazy amount of books you read! This is such a neat thing to do. I probably never would have been able to finish even one row or column, just because I've been cleaving through my TBR and have little time to consider whether they fit into the category!
ReplyDeleteThank you! I also don't really consider what category they're in, I read first then decide later xD
Delete8 bingos!!! That's amazing!! I missed 3 squares and got 5 bingos- those squares were really crucial hahah. I used The Raven King for Monster too :) And I think it's impressive you read so much while being in college! I hardly ever read for pleasure in college, besides rereading Harry Potter haha.
ReplyDeleteThank you! I barely read in college haha! I thought I could complete the final few boxes in the last weeks, but college really takes over my life haha!
DeleteHi guys! Thank you so much for visiting, feel free to leave a comment and talk to me, I don't bite :D
