June 2019 Reading Wrap Up! (feat. SimsAThon & 30 Book in 30 Days Reading Challenge)

In case you missed it (which I'm unsure how if you follow me here, on YouTube, or on Twitter), I took on a #30booksin30days challenge for the month of June. GUESS WHAT?! I COMPLETED IT! I'm a little bit behind on my update vlogs, but I wanted to put all of the books that I read in one place in a wrap up style blog post for y'all as I won't be able to finish up editing until I return from 4th of July festivities on Sunday. 

Overall, this challenge was a lot more manageable than I anticipated! I spent a good amount of time identifying books that I know I could get through quickly (a LOT of graphic novels, shorter books, and books with fast-paced plots), and June tends to be one of my slower months work and activity wise, so I really set myself up for success. I also was open to being flexible with my TBR selections throughout the month - I had to grab a stack of graphics from the library at the end of the month in order to reach my goal - so that really helped as well. I think it's all about being realistic with your schedule and planning ahead in order to achieve a goal like this. I think anyone who's a reader can totally accomplish this challenge!

All of the physical books I read this June! I also read 5 audiobooks, bringing my overall total to 30 for the month.

*This number is from my reading progress tracking sheet, which may be different from my final SimsAThon/30 Books in 30 Days update! My tracking sheet will track all the pages of the books that I FINISH within the current month, and not the actual number of pages read within that month. (So, say I start a book in May, but didn't finish it in June, all the pages of that book will only count for June and none will be counted in May). The YTD totals are accurate, though! 😊
