I think I fared nicely, considering my TBR reservations. Overall, the week and challenges went pretty well; I managed to keep my page count up and completed six books and three novellas. I did diverge from the original list—picking up Shadow and Bone and the Dream Catcher trilogy instead of If I Stay—but by the end of the week, I did not really feel up to reading anything sad or emotional.
