Coyer is a reading challenge hosted by Michelle from Because Reading is Better Than Real Life, Berls from Fantasy is More Fun and Stormi from Books, Movies, Reviews Oh My!. I am always sad when Coyer ends as it’s such a fun challenge. I didn’t get to participate on social media as much this time as it was a busy few months and I just didn’t seem to make the time for it. Let’s hope next Coyer I can make more time for the social media aspect again. Having said that I really had fun again with this challenge and got a lot of books read. Oh and I did manage to participate in a twitter party and won a book :).
How many books did I read during Coyer?
Total books read: 24
New Releases read: 14
Review books read: 14
Blogger Shame books read: 0

Wow – that’s impressive! There was a real range of books there, too. It looks great fun – I’ve been a bit stacked out with review copies throughout the summer. Here’s hoping your autumn reads are also enjoyable:)
Yes it was a great summer in terms of reading :). I did got some review copies rea,d but also a few others.
I’m always sad when COYER ends too, Lola. And I wasn’t able to participate in all the social media fun either so I hope I can in the next one. You ended up doing well though with number of books you read. You should be proud of yourself! π I’ll be putting my post together today so I’ll know then how many books I finished. π

It’s always such a fun challenge and I am sad to see it end, but I am happy with how many books I read. And hopefully next time we can both be more active in the social media fun π
Well done, Lola! I’m always sad when COYER comes to an end, too. Even if we can still visit each other, and hang out in the FB group, it’s not completely the same thing π

Indeed, we can still visit each other and have the group, but it’s not the same. It always feels like Coyer is over so soon, but luckily it’s a twice yearly event.
Well done. I didn’t do this challenge. Summer is just to busy for me and this year was especially busy. This reminds me I need to update my challenge pages. ^_^

Luckily the summer version of Coyer is pretty laid back and every book you read counts. Sorry to hear your summer was so busy.
That’s nice every book counts. Now that I’m a mom and my son is in the 4-5 age range summer was more active. I don’t remember from my kid summers being so busy, but these days we plan actives and then of course something unexpected always happens. ^_^

The winter version is more strict, but summer is laid back. I can see how with a young kid around summers are more busy, but hopefully fun too π
Oh yes it’s fun and with him being our fist everything is new, different, exciting. I just never expected all the craziness we got this year during summer. So glad it’s Fall now! ^_^

Glad to hear that :). I hope things are a bit more quiet for you now that it is fall.
24 books is awesome. I’m not sure how many I read- I think 8?- which doesn’t sound like a lot but for me it’s pretty good. COYER is always fun tho. Sorry to see it be over but there’s always winter . π

Everyone has different amounts of books they read, but that’s okay. There are also people who read way more than me. And yes I am already looking forward to winter π
I didn’t participate but looks like you read quite a few books. Good for you.

Yes it’s fun to see how much I read during the challenge π
I’ve never participated in COYER. Looks like you got through quite a few books and looks like you enjoyed all of them. Even had a 5 star. That’s great!

Yes I was so happy to have gotten a 5 star read :). That doesn’t happen often. It is a fun challenge.

Thanks! I got a lot of good ones read this summer.
You did great! π

Thanks π
Yay, two dozen read! Glad you could at least do the Twitter party if not all the social media stuff.
I had a good time with my first COYER. Not sure how many I read, but I more than met my goal and I got to win BINGO once so I’ll have a book coming too.

I won a giveaway during the twitter party I attended, so I should have a book coming too :). I like how the hosts always make up so many fun stuff. I didn’t do the bingo’s, didn’t get around to it. I am glad I got to do one of the twitter parties, but sad I missed the others as they are a lot of fun usually, but the timing didn’t work out too well for me this time.
