July 2017 Wrap Up - Take THAT Goodreads!!!

I was hoping since I was on vacation a week during the month of July that my reading would pick up.  Glad to see I was right.  I'm still really behind on one challenge but the rest of them are fairing pretty well.  Also, I am finally on top of my Goodreads challenge.  Most of the month I was either ahead or on track so I feel Goodreads no longer has the right to taunt me.  So let's review....

GOODREADS: 58/100 (why do I feel like I slayed a dragon?)
2017 CLOAK & DAGGER CHALLENGE: 28/25 (Final Girls, Chew Vol. 4, The Supernatural Pet Sitter: The Curse, Gwendy's Button Box, Mad) CHALLENGE COMPLETE😝😝😝
2017 FLIGHTS OF FANTASY CHALLENGE: 24/18 (Chew Vol. 4, Squirrel Girl Beats Up the Marvel Universe, The Supernatural Pet Sitter: The Curse, The Coven, Lost Boy) CHALLENGE COMPLETE😅😅😅
2017 HORROR READING CHALLENGE:17/25 (Final Girls, Gwendy's Button Box, Lost Boy)
2017 WHAT AN ANIMAL CHALLENGE: 17/20 (A New Leash on Love, Squirrel Girl Beats Up the Marvel Universe, The Supernatural Pet Sitter: The Curse)
2017 NEW RELEASE CHALLENGE: 41/61 (A New Leash on Love, Final Girls, The Supernatural Pet Sitter: The Curse, The Coven, Gwendy's Button Box, Mad, Lost Boy)
BLOGGER SHAME REVIEW CHALLENGE: 2/12
COYER SUMMER READING LIST: 9 (A New Leash on Love, Final Girsl, Chew Vol. 4, Squirrel Girl Beats Up the Marvel Universe, The Supernatural Pet Sitter: The Curse, The Coven, Gwendy's Button Box, Mad, Lost Boy)

I had 1 2-paw read, 2 3-paw reads, 4 4-paw reads and 2 5-paw reads.  My favorite as Lost Boy closely followed by The Supernatural Pet Sitter: The Curse.  My least favorite was Final Girls which is definitely not the popular opinion.

How did you month stack up???

    You are so amazing at doing your challenges!! Over the years I've dwindled them down to just my Goodreads challenge because who am I kidding? Haha.

      I'm finding them kind of fun but then I also know the ones I pick are ones I should easily be able to do because of the genres, etc.

      I found it over at Sci-Fi and Scary. If you haven't checked out her blog, you need to :)

    Great job, Barb. I am failing at all of mine! Next year I think I'm only doing the GR challenge.

    LOL I'm glad I'm not the only one that feels taunted by Goodreads sometimes. Yay for going well on the challenge!
