*Obviously this is a challenge that will never be completed, and I did so well at the beginning. I am going to be reading several more books from this list as many were for the Advent reads event, but I will be assessing these books and possibly unhauling several. If I can end up with about 50% read I think I will be pretty happy. I am a little shocked at how many books I purchased this year, this is something I will have to curb a little next year, there is no need to purchase nearly 200 books a year (and I didn't even track the kids books)!
TBR Shelf Books
65. Angels at the Table
66. Fire
67. Pendragon's Banner
*I didn't set a real challenge number for this, it was more to see if I was actually reading books from my shelf or just buying new books (and also to make sure I read as many as I purchased). I am really happy with how many I have read this year, I don't foresee reading too many more but i think this is a good number.
Library Books:
*I have been using the library through Overdrive for about half the year, and while I have been using it to read books I already have in different formats I have been reading some books exclusively and wanted to list them here too.
