That’s awesome you had so many 5-star reads!!
Erica Robyn says
Thank you! 😀

I love seeing so many 5-star books. Good job finding books that fit for you. I know my average rating will be slightly inflated, because I am always giving half stars, but rounding up. I would love to know my honest average, but I am sort of lazy.
Erica Robyn says
hahaha I year ya! I started a spreadsheet that helps me to better track things… but of course the first thing I did was cut out all the partial ratings so it was solid 1, 2, 3, 4, 5. That was such a mistake!
Lindsi says
I really like Cullen Bunn, but haven’t heard of Shadow Roads! FCBD?? How did I miss it?! Bummer! You’re one of the few bloggers I know that also reads comics! Sooo many 5-star reads this year! I really need to do a post like this — super fun, Erica.

Erica Robyn says
I loved the free comic preview!! I can’t wait to pick up more of the comics from the Shadow Roads series! 🙂 I’d love to see your post if you have time to do this one!
Lauren @ Always Me says
I love seeing all of these stats – my average rating for the year is 3.7 and my overall rating since I’ve joined Goodreads is currently hanging at 4.01. 🙂
Erica Robyn says
<3 Thank you! I need to get better at keeping track of things. I have an awesome spreadsheet that I use for my reading tracking, but it's from another source (Created by Brock Roberts), so when I first started it, I deleted a bunch of stuff and messed it up! :(

EEK! 65 five star reads? That’s a pretty good year of reading!!!
Erica Robyn says
Right?! I’m so pumped!!
Angela says
Wow, 65 5-star reads, that’s incredible!
Erica Robyn says
Right!? I cannot wait to get my post up about them! I have a few more additions to it from the books I read over the holiday 🙂
Esther @ BiteIntoBooks says
109 books?! That’s AMAZING! What’s your goal for next year?
I also love that you make personal goals for yourself 🙂
Thanks for participating!
Erica Robyn says
😀 I keep my goal at 100 each year. I have a few doozies on my TBR that I’ve been holding off on, so this year may be the year of more pages read rather than just total books total.
Esther @ BiteIntoBooks says
BTW, I took the liberty to add your Blogpost to my Widget, so others can visit you. Please let me know if you don’t want this and want me to delete it!!
