COYER Summer Reading List | August Readathon Wrap Up!

COYER is a reading challenge hosted by Michelle @ Because Reading, Berls @ Fantasy is more fun, and Stormi @ Books, Movies, Reviews Oh My!
COYER stands for "Clean out your e-reads."  And typically the goal is to read from all the freebies or low priced books you've collected in the past on your e-readers.

But for this summer duration of June 17th to September 8th, our hosts are throwing out the normal rules!

For those of us participating in the Summer Reading List part of this summer's COYER Challenge, our hosts have announced three different readathons for each month of the challenge:

  • Read-a-thon Dates are
    • June 25th – July 2nd ~ read only ebooks
    • July 23rd to July 30th ~ read only physical books
    • August 20th to August 27th ~ read only audio and ebooks

In a way, August's thon was better than the previous two... however, not really.  I'd say I break even considering that one book was less than 300 pages, and the rest were novellas that were barely 150 pages.  But whatever, I managed to knock four more books off of my digital shelves.  That's still accomplishment!

About two more weeks until the end of COYER, so I'm hoping to knock a few more books off my reading list.  I stopped adding five after finishing five books, and decided just to focus on what's on my list already.

Then there's Halloween Bingo, and my own Personal Series Challenge...

But truthfully, giving myself lists and a direction has been quite helpful in knocking out TBRs and deciding what to read next.  Sometimes you just need structure, but I'm going to make myself take things even more laid back as the year progresses, and when 2018 rolls around.
