Fortnightly* Update #4

Got a bit behind again, but I managed to do a lot of reading this last week. I do have a few quarterly challenges that are coming up. A lot of the books will double count, but I need to read them first. I am doing good on yearly challenges. As usual, I'm optimistic. I have decided to give up my monthly challenges. I've been having trouble getting to them and while I'll keep my goals in mind, I won't stress about completing the challenges.

 

*I've decided to change this a bit to a bimonthly update, on the 1st and 15th of each month. But I'm keeping the name, since I really like the word fortnight.
