Another amazing day of reading, not only did I surpassed the 300-page mark, but I also reach the weekly quota. My total for the week right now stands at 1,612 pages, that’s 359 more pages than the weekly goal, and with a lazy Sunday still ahead of me, this week will end up being the best so far this year.
Again, my numbers surge when I start combining some reading sessions of manga with the current book that I’m reading, in this case, Long Live Evil. I don’t know how this perfect balance slips my mind.
Today, I started another manga series to keep this habit and reading scheme going, Priest, is a manhwa or Korean comic book created by Hyung Min-Woo about the fallen priest Ivan Isaacs who sells his soul to the demon Belial in order to fight the forces of evil. The story fuses elements of Western, Dark Fantasy and Horror. The first volume introduces us to some of the inner turmoil of Ivan and the deadly task of facing the 12 fallen archangels.
I’m feeling really confident, even a little bit cocky. With only 130 days left on my reading year, I’m starting to get the crazy idea of aiming to finish the year in style, with all the remaining days without a single one under 179 pages. You know me, I love a good challenge.
With the Bookly Readathon approaching and the year total being in the lower part of the 20,000-page, the idea of finishing with the 179-page a day streak seems more like a necessity rather than a optional approach for closing out the year.
But as I have been doing this passed month and my personal mantra “one page at a time “ , the best approach is to take it one step at a time, and surely, I will be celebrating my next birthday with a 40,000+ page year in the books .
Below, you can see the latest status of my challenges
- 10-day reading streak, at least 179 pages per day (Completed)
- 5-day gold reading streak, at 300 pages per day (3 day streak)
- 4 week reading streak, at least 1,253 pages per week ( 2 week streak)
- 100-day reading streak, at least 179 pages per day (16 day streak)
As you can see everything is well under way, in fact, the reward for the first challenge finished is already in my hands, you may wonder what it is, without any further ado.
The first volume of the Horus Heresy, this seminal series will be become the year-long challenge for the eighteenth year of my project, I’m so excited that the first piece is already in my hands , and I’m more than eager to start my journey in the Grimdark
Off to read
