Monthly Reflections ~ January 2018

Monthly Reflections, where we take the time to reflect on the previous month.

It's been a while since my last Monthly Reflections post (ahem, about 15 months), but I thought it was time to bring this feature back and I'm hoping to do these consistently in 2018. :))

Books Read In January:

1. Captured by Love by Jody Hedlund
2. Blind Spot by Dani Pettrey
3. The Reluctant Duchess by Roseanna M. White
4. A Lady Unrivaled by Roseanna M. White
5. Shielding His Christmas Witness by Laura Scott
6. A Cast of Stones by Patrick W. Carr

Favorite Read of the Month: 

The Reluctant Duchess by Roseanna M. White

Some Books I Added to My TBR Pile This Month:

 

The first one I just bought yesterday (it was on sale -- yay!), the second one is a recent Kindle freebie purchase, and the last four are NetGalley review books.

2018 Resolutions/Goals Update:

-Get NetGalley ratio to 65%

• Currently at 54%, but I still have two reviews to add.
  

-Finish at least 12 nonfiction books (hopefully 1 each month).

•  0/12

-Finish at least 5 series.

•  2/5

-Finish at least 20 Love Inspired books.

• 1/20

Seasonal TBR Pile Challenge Update:

Finished 4 out of the 12 books so far. I feel really good about that.

My Goals for February:

• Read 1 Nonfiction
• Read 4 books from my Winter TBR Pile.
• Read 3 Love Inspired books
• Finish The Staff and the Sword series (books 2&3)
• Increase my NetGalley score by at least 2%.

Now it's your turn! What did you accomplish in January, what do you hope to accomplish in February?
