Congratulations Goodreads, for not letting me know.

Also congratulations to Sarah, Lilac and Lindy for finishing!

@Sarah, Lilac: That's quite alright, I've reduced my goal as well. As long as you had fun reading, that's all that matters :).

@Lindy: I'm having a hard time guessing what you did and didn't read. Would you mind adding book links? (I've counted six, I hope that's alright.)

@Erika: Keep going! You'll make it!!

[Karina]

I completely forgot about this one, though I see I managed to sign up for it! I'm opting for laziness and not feeling like sifting through what I've read to find relevant matches - and wish myself a better attention span in the future. :)
