Wow Thenia, 22 out of 25 is pretty impressive. Congrats! I ended up with 15/25. I lost interest in the rest of the books. Most of them came off the TBR because of this challenge which is a relief. That thing resembles Chewbacca as it is.
This was a pretty awesome challenge in my opinion. I'm kind of gonna miss it.

Thanks Komal! You did pretty well yourself. Getting books read or removed from the TBR list was pretty much this challenge's purpose as I saw it so you should consider it a success as well. ;)

I am way over YA and maybe a bit sad about it, thinking about all the cool YA books that I didn't get around to reading before I grew tired of the genre... Anyway, happy new year!
Happy New Year to you as well! Definitely can relate to all the books that never got read. Oddly enough though, I'm actually getting into YA! What genres are you enjoying now that YA has bitten the dust?
Lately I was in the mood for UF a lot so we're going in opposite directions it seems! :POther than that I enjoy historical romances, dystopians, fantasy, mysteries, anything, really, depending on the mood - I'm just finding it hard to get into YA for a while now.

No worries. I know it's a rough one without changes. Maybe next year (2015) we'll revisit this one and make some adjustments to that pesky rule. :)

Although if I did, I'd probably let people have a list of alternates, so they could swap some out (coz I really struggle with the non changeable lists as well - think that's what frightens a lot of people off this challenge).
