Hello!
I hope everyone is having a good week so far. I meant to do this post at the beginning of the month but I completely forgot.
I have been really trying to read the books on my list of 24 Books in 2024 with the aim of reducing my TBR list. Here is the post with the original list.
I have so far managed to read a total of 5 books off the list which is behind on where I would like to be but I am hoping to catch up. Reading hasn’t been going very well this year but I live in hope it will improve!
Books I have read
- The Midnight Folk by John Masefield
- The Daughter of Doctor Moreau by Silvia Moreno-Garcia
- Cleopatra and Frankenstein by Coco Mellors
- Blade Breaker by Victoria Aveyard
- The Shadow Rising by Robert Jordan
Just 19 books to go!
How are your book challenges going so far this year?
Happy Reading

Mine are games more than challenges. I am going to have a look where I’m at this weekend – was thinking of having a 1/3 mark update (because everyone does 1/4 and I like to March to my own drum 😆). It will be interesting to see what I’ve hit.
So, you’ve “only” read 5 of the 24, but have you read other books and were they TBR books? Given the point of the 24, would they not count towards your TBR goal too?

The 24 books are mainly books that have been sat on my TBR for way too long. The other books I have read this year are books that I have purchased this year. I’m really good at reading new books but bad at reading books that I purchased a long time ago.

I’m the opposite 🙂. This year I am both trying to buy less and read some of them within a couple of months of buying them. I haven’t counted but I think I might be at about 1/3 of the books I have read this year as ones I have bought this year, so not bad.
