...*looks around* you see... What had happened was... *facepalm* lol. I actually, have read more than 4 books. I've really finished a total of 11 books, but as I don't count books that I have not reviewed yet, 4 it will be...for now lol. 

So... As you can see, not much of an update. A book here and a book there, but other then that everything is still the same. I haven't been reading any books that I want to read personally (aside from Lover Reborn by J.R. Ward) as this month and the next few months I will be catching up on reviews. Let's just hope a few of those are books that can fall into any of these categories. Til' next time!

In my defense. I did not read ONE book. I've read more than one, but only have reviewed one book. Lol. I'm weird that way. I won't count the book as being "read" unless I review it.

Well, there's my update! I read TWO books. TWO. oh my lanta. *sigh* I am determined to read more than two books for this month lol. What about y'all? How are you reading challenges coming along?
