Robin (Saturndoo) (robinsaturndoo) Welcome :)

This is my first year to attempt this challenge. I am super excited about it. I tend to be very organized with my challenges but sometimes get a little behind with posting/updating them but I will eventually. More than likely I will skip around and complete the prompts out of order lol.

I am going to try to rate and date the books as I read them for the prompts.

Good luck to you all!!! Happy Reading :)
