today! It has literally been in the "currently reading" left hand bar for two years. I am so happy to finally hit "I'm finished" and to stop feeling like a loser. Updated post #28.
Finished #4
series I have not continued more than 6 months despite the fact I have owned it. It was eh for me about 2.5 but still will finish the series because there are a few things I am curious about.
Finished my 4th of Round 2
for series. Updated post #10.
Starting late but I can do this no problem!

The Scorpio Races was there for me over 2 years! I felt so accomplished when I finally read it and LOVED it. I did figure out though, if you go to that book's page and it says you are currently reading it under the cover photo, you can change it from there and put it back on your to read list. Just a future reference if you have a book on the currently reading bar that is driving you nuts :)

For the longest time I couldn't figure out how to do that with out marking it finished and rating it. It drove me nuts!

! Talk about disappointing. I think this may the first book where the romance was so terrible it ruined the entire experience for me. Updated post #28 and I made it!!!

Everyone should be updated at this point. Please feel free to let me know if I missed anyone or messed anything up. Great reading, everyone!
Finished my 6th of round 2
for series. And I'm done. Now on to reading new books again.
I totally forgot to post, but a while back, I finished
as a TBR, to complete the challenge. Yay! I may pick up a few more here an there, but probably won't get through another 6.I had fun though. I really loved 3 of the books I read and liked the other 3 pretty well, so overall this was a great challenge for me.
Updated original post #8.
Congratulations, Amber! And to all the other folks who've completed the challenge so far (Kelly, Christie, Barb, Ashley, Candice, Jennifer & Hillary). You're an inspiration to the rest of us to keep going!It is extremely satisfying to finish off books that I've been meaning to read for years :) Let's keep at it, everyone! And if you've already completed the challenge - keep reading more! In follow up rounds, I'll count just about anything that you've put off for a while - whether it be YA or not! It's all about finishing the year off with a strong sense of accomplishment :)
Finally finished the challenge! Read
-(Non YA). I have owned this book since Jan 2016.Updated post #7

I did it! Finished my 6th. Updated post 19. A series I hadn't finished.
update Melanie (original post #9)book #5-
a book I started but did not finish*I am hoping to read
or
in time to finish this challenge
Don't think I'll be able to finish this challenge. I guess I underestimated how busy I was going to be (and how many other books I wouldn't be able to resist reading first! I'm hopeless!), but still working on finishing
and
so that I can get to at least half of the challenge. Anyway, it's been great! It made me go back to reading The Mortal Instruments, which I'd stopped more than two years ago, I guess, mostly because I was angry at the cliffhanger, and needed a break!

Well done, everyone!!! I'll update everyone's records (just as soon as I return home in an hour or two) and then you can also expect to see the new challenge posted. It will be - you guessed it - NEW, NEW, NEW! So start picking out all the books you want to read from new authors or new series. It's a great way to start a new year. See you there!!!
Thanks for your patience, everyone! I was having wifi issues at home and had to wait until I had some free time at work to get us updated.All readers that I've heard about have been updated for this challenge - but let me know if you forgot to tell us about something you read and/or if I made any errors.
Also, the New, New, New challenge is now up! Feel free to join us for the next challenge there.
