Other books/short stories were read this year that didn't make the list (for reasons) and all the Gail Carriger books were re-read just because they were awesome.
I think I'll be taking a break from the challenge next year but I'll still be reading. It was too stressful working and trying to keep up with my book count this year. I need to just relax and read next year with no set goal in mind.
Happy Holidays!
