Due to family circumstances -- my mother dying and my being named executor of her estate -- I have not been able to continue to read for the various challenges I joined earlier in the year. I'm still reading a little bit, but not nearly enough to finish much. So, I'm going to change my goals to match the number of books I've read so far. I will continue to post books as I am able to finish them, but I don't expect that to be very many. I hate to leave anything undone, so I've decided that I will have a personal challenge next year to finish the books I don't get to this time! So, please change my goal on message #12 to 165, which are the books I've already completed.
