Bloggiesta Update #1

So we're almost done with Bloggiesta so I thought I'd take a look to see where I am in order to make a big push for the final day!

My To-Do List:

Re-organize/structure my to-review list. 
DONE! This was massive and took a few hours. I created a new spreadsheet and event split it in two. I now have a separate list for "to-reviews" past the publish date. I even found this awesome template over at Book Riot.

Put some ARCs up for guest review. 

DONE! With the reworking of the "to-review" list I think I have a handle on how much I can read per week. With reality in place there's just some ARCs I'm never going to get to. So instead of them going to waste I've added them on the blog for people who would like to be guest reviewers.

Update reviews on archive page, goodreads, netgalley, edelweiss, amazon, and pinterest.
In progress. I went through NetGalley and Edelweiss so far.

Write two reviews.
Need to review Messenger of Fear. Debating whether to write a DNF review or not...

Complete one mini-challenge.

Participate in one Twitter chat.
I'm planning to participate in the End of Event Wrap Up: Sunday September 21 @ 1 p.m. Eastern

Challenges:
I've chosen one mini-challenge for Bloggiesta but have * other challenges I may explore in the future.
