The I Suck At Challenges Challenge Update

I have read 20 books so far this year for challenges ( I'm just a little behind on posting a couple of reviews.)

I have finished 5 challenges so far this year:

The Historical Fiction Reading Challenge3/3
What An Animal 6/6
Book Awards II Reading Challenge 10/10

The next two I have finished but may take them to another level:

World Citizen Challenge 1/1
Themed Reading Challenge - 2009 6/5

I am happy to report that the 3 challenges that I was anxious about last month, I am no longer anxious about! I finished 2 of them and almost finished with the 3rd. I am confident that I will finish.

Here are my standing in the rest of my challenges:

The 2nd Canadian Book Challenge July 1, 2008 to July 1, 2009 10/13

The 2009 ARC Reading Challenge: 12/25

The PUB Challenge - 2009: 8/9

2009 TBR Lite Challenge: 4/6

2009 READ & REVIEW CHALLENGE: 13/52

The Chunkster Challenge 2009: 4/5

In summary, I am doing much better than I expected and am optomistic.

I am trying to decide if I will be signing about for The Books Awards III challenge.

Update: The "I Suck at Challenges" Challenge

I have read 10 books so far this year for challenges:

Below are how many book have complete for each challenge

Book Awards II Reading Challenge August 1, 2008 to June 1, 2009
:6/10

The following challenges all end on December 31, 2009:

The 2009 ARC Reading Challenge
: 10/25

In Summary:

These are my completed Challenges:

I am only 1 books away from completing 2 challenges.

I'm still felling very optomistic for 8 of my 11 challenges remaining.

The 3 I am getting anxious about are:
Book Awards II Reading Challenge August 1, 2008 to June 1, 2009:6/10
What An Animal Challenge July 1, 2008 to June 30, 2009:3/6
The 2nd Canadian Book Challenge July 1, 2008 to July 1, 2009:4/13

Not too bad bad. The problem with the 3 is that I am still over comitted in ARC's and I am trying to catch up. Most of them do not meet the criteria for the 3 challenges.
