In spite of a slow first half in June, I did read quite a lot more during the second half. It's nice to end a month joyfully! I also got a nook this month and had an awesome weekend getaway to DC! I'm still doing 12 challenges (one perpetual, and one my own summer challenge), and I am finally coming to terms with the possibility that I will not complete all of them by the end of the year.

Wow! You are amazing! Almost 3000 words this month alone, and so many great books! Keep it up! I honestly can't believe how fast the year is going...please slow down, really! :o)
I read and/or reading 3 of those books :)
You had such a good June! Congrats! It may have started slow but you finished STRONG!
What a successful June you have had! I am so impressed that you take the time to track all these stats for the month. I don't even think about doing it until I read a post like this one :)
Here's to a great July!!
For it being June, I'm very behind on my year of reading goals, but for some reason I'm OK with that. I've had a good month and May was decent. Maybe I can catch up afterall.
Congrats on being half way to 100! Great progress.
What a great reading month June was for you!
It's so amazing how well you keep up with all the stats! And a nook! I'm kind of envious...I have a kindle...the nooks just look so very cool! and the loaning thing you can do with the nooks is fabulous! enjoy!
You had a terrific June and what great progress with your challenges as well!
What a great reading month? What was your favorite book read in June?
Danielle, I wish the year slowed down a bit too! It's June already. :-o
Felicia, I'm definitely glad I finished strong, else I might have slipped into one of those nasty ruts.
Molly, I get some kind of pleasure by keeping track of those stats. LOL! There were more, but I thought I was overdoing. ;-)
Care, so long as you have a good quality month, I guess it doesn't really matter how many you read. :)
Belle, thank you! It truly was!
Stacy, I love my nook! I enjoy cozying up to it. I need to get through my current review books, so that I can get to reading it more.
Diane, thank you! I'm glad that my June was better than my May.
Vasilly, I LOVED Still Alice most of all. It was so beautiful!
You did great! I haven't read any of those books, but I'm planning to read Leviathan soon!
