The Frozen Hours: A Novel of the Korean War is the eighth book for my challenge. Only been on my TBR list a bit more than a year but I am glad it got included in this challenge. An exceptional book about the Korean War.

I've completely forgot to update this. I've removed a bunch of books because I no longer want to read them so the list shrunk down quite a bit.

In my original list for my TBR challenge I included The Smallest Dragonboy by Anne McCaffrey,
not realizing I had read this years ago as part of a larger anthology. So, I am replacing it with Deathworld 1 by Harry Harrison which has actually been on my TBR list longer. Since April 2012, actually. My score is still:

8/20

[Lily]

I know it is the end of May but I was wondering if I could join this challenge; If I can, I would like to read 10 books. I used the Goodreads random selection for this and only change 1 title (as Goodreads wanted me to start with book 2 of a series).
The list is:
Girl Through Glass
In the Lake of the Woods
The Queen of the Tearling
Gargantua and Pantagruel
The Crystal Cave
Rebel of the Sands
The Lost City of Z: A Tale of Deadly Obsession in the Amazon
The Smell of Other People's Houses
The Devil on Her Tongue
The Crown Tower
