Taking Stock - January

Well, 2014 is off to a robust start though I didn't quite manage a book a day. ALAMW got a bit in the way.

Total posts: 19
Total books read this month: 24
Total books read this year: 24

Challenges:
Audio Books: 4
Debut Author: 0
Mount TBR: 0
Picture Books: 4

The Good: 24 books considering how busy this month was is pretty good.

The Bad: Oops! No debuts read yet. Nothing off the TBR either. Didn't review much. I really have to buckle down.
