Vikki’s comments from the On The Same Page group.

The only book I've read is The Book Thief which I would recommend.
Good luck!

I need to do this but I just can't imagine reading Christmas books outside of winter. I have far too many in my to-read pile and really need to stop buying more until I get through what I have.
I've only read The Christmas Cookie Club from your selections and would recommend it, I liked it

Next for me is:

Welcome to all who have joined since my last "welcome" post. Lovely to see everyone, hope you'll feel right at home here :)

Amanda - could you post your challenge as a new topic?

I love John Grisham's books but haven't read A Time For Mercy (yet), looking forward to your thoughts on it

I enjoyed the Divergent series and would definitely recommend it

I re-read The Secret Garden a few years ago, I'd originally read it as a kid. Hope you like it :)

The Book Of Lost Names is on my to-read list. I'll be interested to hear your thoughts on it

Haven't read any of the books but looks like an interesting list

Good luck with your challenge :)

Interesting list and nice to hear the reasons why you've added them. I might consider doing it when I get round to making up my own list. I have some ideas but I need to take the time to make my final decisions.
Good luck with your challenge - enjoy it even if you don't manage to read all the books you want.

Good luck with your challenge!
