October is OVER, which means it's time to present to you my results for the Platypire Read-A-Thon for October. I felt like this month was a failure reading-wise, but there's a good reason for that. I literally spent the whole month proofreading one book after another (and had more than a couple days of downtime due to issues with my right eye that we're still trying to determine the cause of). In any case, I proofread seven books this month, one of them twice, and that takes more time no matter how I slice it. And the eye issues had me out of commission for almost a week total. So even though I didn't get as much read this month as I would have liked, I accomplished a lot.
But anyway, here are my results (if you can make any sense of them).

So like I mentioned, I didn't get as much reading done as I would have wished, and I didn't get as much reviewing done as I had wished either because I was just too busy being paid to read. But I got more reviews written than books I added that I'll need to review, and with luck, November will be less busy (it won't, I'm preparing for a trans-Atlantic move which means attempting to purge my belongings) and I'll be able to finally actually get caught up on all those overdue reviews.
So how many books did you read in October? Let me know below. - Katie
