It's the middle of March and I'm a little bit fluey so I'm on the couch reading all day. Just so I remember why there was a glut of books at this time.

It's July, half way through and I've read 42 of these books. 10 more to go!
Favourite so far The Sea of Tranquility
Least favourite Wuthering Heights

So stoked to have read 104 books in 2016 including 52 books for this challenge.

Congrats! I hope 2017 is also going to be a great reading year for you!

Congrats :)
