Congrats MKat!! Solid effort :)

[Gabriella]

Oof, completed this with four hours to spare when I really thought at the beginning of the month I wouldn't be able to complete this challenge, as all books were read in July.
I never read everything, but I was happy to get at least halfway through it with 11 out of 20 read. Most books were from the How to Train Your Dragon series, that I absolutely love and reread in June so I could read the next 4 for this challenge, leaving one for the next Meet and Greet.
Got Rebel of the Sands as a didn't finish and some books were definitely better than others, but I'm very glad I got them all out of my shelves.
