This month has continued to be busy at work, but despite that, some silly part of me agreed to a bet with a friend where I need to read 3 light novels from the backlog a month (not including my review materials) and somehow get my backlog overall down to 70. We’ll see where that stupid decision gets me! Let’s take a look at what I got read in August~
Into one of the hottest months of the year and busiest times at work, but hopefully despite all that I’ve made some progress on keeping that backlog down!

Given the backlog went up last month, my bare minimum this month is to have reduced the count of that. Let’s see what happened.
Another month goes by, my backlog only grows and it feels like little progress is being made. But let’s find out if that’s true or not!

I have no idea where four months of the year have gone already, although Easter did eat my life for like two weeks because of work being busy so I suppose that answers there. Anyways, let’s see what I read this month!

We made it through March! I quite like this month because the weather is improving (we’ll ignore the snow yesterday) and it’s my birth month, so I get spoiled by my family and friends. Which I suppose doesn’t help the backlog unless I’ve been reading things away… Let’s find out how I did!

The second reading log of the year! Also the shortest month so I feel like this is where I make the least progress with getting through the backlog. Let’s see how I did!

It’s the first reading log of the year and after making some sizeable purchases this month, I’m hoping I’ve managed to read away some of my January sins. At the very least this gives me an interesting data point to draw from going forward since starting this year I will be noting down my backlog count as well as my reading/arrival counts month to month. This should make for some nifty charts come years end, but let’s not get ahead of ourselves just yet!

It’s 2022! A new year begins, but before I can worry about what kind of things I’ll be reading this year it’s time to find out what I read in December 2021 and how my reading stats compare to the previous year.

Just one more month of the year left! Time flew by so fast, I have no idea where November went! Hopefully, all my energy went into getting the backlog down, let’s find out!
