Cats: Reducing my oldest TBRs from other people

[Catsalive]

This challenge is for me to reduce the number of TBRs on my shelf that have been registered by other Bookcrossers.

I have already made a start this month by clearing the very oldest, from... 2005!!

I read 49 of my oldest TBRs from other people last year. This year I'll aim for at least 50.

I cleared all the 2005s & most of the 2006s in 2015, so now I have to work on the 2006/7s... and, I just counted, there are 50 of them! Just right.
