Elisabeth I finished War and Peace this week; I'd been working on it since summer (my second time reading it!) I also read National Avenue by Booth Tarkington, which I think qualifies—I'm pretty sure I ordered my copy in August. :)

My sister's favorite was Darra also (and Siri)! Haha, yeah ... I personally remember him as being a bit stiff/serious mostly, not an antagonist like Xanatos, but it's been years since I read those. =)

Read some Christian fiction e-books that have been on my Kindle app: My first time reading Ronie Kendig --my mom has some of her books, so I definitely want to check out her full length novels.

Necessary Proof - Camy Tang
Operation Zulu Redemption: Overkill - The Beginning by Ronie Kendig
Love in the Balance - Regina Jennings

M F  (fianaigecht) | 247 comments I finished Vikings and Spy for the Queen of Scots, both of which were on my pile of library books that I've had out for weeks and weeks and really needed to get finished before I go to uni. Two left. Pretty sure I'm not going to manage the massive non-fiction one, but the shorter one I might... (I leave on Sunday.)

J. Pennington (jgracetheauthor) | 74 comments Finally finished The Secret Keeper, which I started back in June. :)

Jonathan Lovelace (kingjon) | 89 comments I finally finished Poems, 1923-1954, the collection of poems by e.e. cummings I've been reading slowly for months. And my dad pulled For Whom Did Christ Die? off our family shelves and gave it to me to read last week; I don't know if that counts for this month's challenge.

I liked Siri too. I like her name a lot, but now it means a talking iPhone. :P Ferus was mostly just a prim and proper, stuck up, "I'm a better Padawan than you" goody two shoes, which made him super annoying. Xanatos was evil. I only read about half of the Jedi Quest books, random ones, and I think the last one I read was the 10th one, which freaked me out because Korriban was creepy and I had just watched Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom for the first time. Strangely enough, though, I actually like both stories.
