    • Same here I don’t participate in too many challenges, but I do enjoy them and find a few each year that I participate in. If I do too many it’s hard to track, but with this amount I manage. Coyer is always a fun challenge and I participate each time they host it 🙂

    • I was trying out something new this time and listing the covers, it looks so fun and pretty to see all the covers. And I agree the cozies have the best covers!

    • I have more e-books than physical books, as I only get e-books for review and acquire lots of freebies and buy some myself. I also still have a lot of physical books to read, but usually read less of those each month. It’s a fun challenge and I am glad I made most of my goals.

    • Same here, I can’t wait for summer Coyer, this challenge is always so much fun!

      That’s great you made your goal and I hope you can get the rest reviewed soon as well!

    • I always like tying in some other challenges with Coyer, although it’s too bad I didn’t get any books read for the Blogger Shame one so far. I did great for the New release challenge 🙂
