February: A Review

Monthly Feature- rounds up all the books I've read, progress on challenges and reviews my blogging!
It is kind of an expansion (?) of my favourite memes hosted by the lovely Shelia over at Book Journey!
 
February- the shortest month! I managed to pack in 128 hours of work despite having a 16 hour contract! A trip to London for a close friend's Greek themed Birthday party. A birthday meal for another friend. Lots of pancakes and my very first giveaway but not as much blogging as I had hoped!

February in numbers!
Total posts= 15

Posts
So close but fell one short!
Reviews
At least I didn't fall lower than 3....
 
What I hope to achieve in March!
  • Reviews- I will post at least 4 reviews. Lower target but hopefully I will do more!
  • Posts- Once again 16! I also want to make sure I actually publish all my post ideas.
  • Comments- I keep failing behind with comment replies! I want to stay on top of this!

How was your February?
Any aims for March?
Much Love!
