TGIF at GReads! (14) & Weekly Recap

This Friday blog hop is run by Ginger at GReads! (who also created this beautiful button). Each week she posts a new question for us to ponder. Click the button to join in!

This week's question is:

Reading Challenges: Did you sign up for any this year? How has your progression been?
I finished one! Finally! I'm officially done with 12 books for the Debut Author Challenge. That was by far my favorite challenge of the year, and I hope to read a few more before the year is out.

As for the other challenges, I'm progressing pretty well. I'm on track to finish by the end of the year, which was the goal, and I've narrowed down my choices to books I already own in an attempt to avoid a lot of book buying before the holiday season. I can't wait to do a big recap post in the new year for all of the cool books I read for these challenges!

My weekly recap is inspired by the phenomenally talented, kind and generous Small Review. If you are not already following her, you are really missing out. Also, have I mentioned how much I love Cool Text? They're the folks that allow me to make these cool (and simple) text buttons - for FREE!

If you're a first time visitor, or just didn't get the chance to stop by this week, here's what you missed:
