Updated message 181. Only 8 more books until I finish this challenge. Well it would be more than that because James Patterson has come out with more books since I first posted this challenge. I reckon I'll get there one day.
Updated message 103. Haven't been on in awhile so just getting around to updating. Can't believe only 2 more books and I'll be through with this challenge.
Well I have finished 9 letters and 17 more to go! I only have 1 book left in several letters though and a lot of those are vowels. I'll try to get a lot more of these finished this year.
Just about half way there! Only have 28 more states to go. It's taking awhile to do this one. Getting there slowly but surely.
I'm having a hard time also. I've just been doing in as I come across them and that's a slow process. I think I'm going to try and read at least two a month. Dani most of the books I've been reading also take place in New York, California or Texas. I have a question for everyone; If a book takes place in 2 different states can you use either one?
I'm in! Really need to get some of these books of my mountainous TBR pile!TBR Tackler Challenge

I accidently marked the same book as read twice but it was two different editions. I was trying to change the edition of the book I was reading but it just added it again. I tried to delete one of the editions but couldn't figure out how to do that. Hope someone can help me delete one of them.
