Thanks for that info. I usually end up quitting because books pile up too fast!
Congrats, LaurLa!I must admit to having a struggle with this game and ended up quitting it last year. So, I am proud to announce that I will have started or read 7 books. [Yes, I am counting started on the books I own, because I will complete them but maybe not entirely in the month.]

I really need to see if any of the LOST non-fiction books that I am reading will fit here. - NOPE! To few shelvings.
My list for February is:Between Shades of Gray - Historical Fiction
When Gods Die - Historical Mystery
An Excellent Mystery - Medieval
However, I read a fair number of Historical books, so there might be more.
Finished The Millionaire Baby for Trim 23.Reading:
The Library of the Dead for Birthday Game 23
The Dressmaker of Khair Khana: Five Sisters, One Remarkable Family, and the Woman Who Risked Everything to Keep Them Safe for Lost. *I expect to finish this one today or tomorrow.
Tea with Hezbollah: Sitting at the Enemies' Table Our Journey Through the Middle East for Lost. Just starting this one. The second non-fiction on my Lost list.
The Big Gold Dream: The Classic Crime Thriller for Trim 23. Also just starting this one.
Mostly still working on old games. I will try to fit some of them into new games once read, if possible. Trim 23 and Birthday were games that I forgot about last year.

Got it! All posted to here.
Oh, gee, LaurLa, I get where you are coming from so well. But, I did plan my reading and found that, although some genres were sparse in books that I might be able to read...horror being one example...I was really able to find not only books I would read but actually books I WANT to read. I am now excited about this challenge. I hope the same comes true for you.
Congrats, Rosemary!
Congrats to all!

Ah...that is why I missed your name. I was looking down the alphabet list, not at the top!
Lauren, I don't see Prompt 6 or 12 recorded as finished. Which are you working on?
Lauren wrote: "Fifteen in Fifteen - Prompt #14: Arrays - Complete."Got it. Congrats!
Dee wrote: "I think my audiobook method worked vs kindle/print (at least for lost)"I am listening more often to audiobooks, but I am not sure my old books will be on that media. Glad it worked for you, though.
