Update to message 186: 20/20, done!

It took a bit of effort finding books in new languages at the library at the end, but I made it! I enjoyed this challenge, it was fun finding books I probebly wouldn't have read otherwise. I'm doing this again in 2018.

I finished Britt-Marie Was Here and loved it! I would recommend any of Backman's books.
