It was on the 2013 Challenge list for a couple of weeks. It was a mistake, though. I'm glad you're having fun with it this year!

Thanks, Courtney.

[Courtney]

12 days to go!!! We've had 7/52 finishers so far. Have you all updated your lists recently? Even if you don't finish, I'd love to see how many books we've read this year.

[Susan (susayq ~)]

I have 11 left!!! And Hubs is now NOT coming home till Monday, so that means reading all weekend :)

[Catherine]

I have a few lettres left! :(

Yay! I'm the same way when my boys are gone, that and trashy television. We have a long drive ahead of us, which DH will be behind the wheel so I can read.

[Taylor]

Hi Harley,I'm Taylor! Those books sound like they're about magic, is that correct?

[Taylor]

Oh I see. Well I hope you enjoy them when you are able to finish them. Have you read the Harry Potter books?

[Susan (susayq ~)]

Sadly, I don't see me finishing the last 8 books for this challenge before new year's eve :( Here's what I got for this though...

Great, thanks for sharing. Sorry about your near finish, Harley! That's a bummer. I've still got about 100 pages to read in one book, then on to the last one! Again, I'd love to see how many books we've all read together for this challenge, so be sure to update your list or re-post it! Congratulations to all those who have already finished.

well I didn't finish, but I got lots of series finished because of this challenge!

[Lynne]

I finished! My lists are #217 and #218 (originally post #62, but I ran out of room). Thanks for such a fun challenge, I really put a dent into my back log of books!

[Courtney]

Congratulations, Lynne. I'll update the list.

I'm also finished. I'll be getting some stats together this evening, so check post #2 in the next couple of days.

If you want to do this challenge next year, check out Romance Lover's for the Challenge-Impaired version at http://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/1.... They are borrowing it!

[Courtney]

Congrats, Mary! I just saw your update. Still getting stats together...

[Courtney]

The stats are up! You still have a couple of hours to finish up any books you're in the middle of, but I'm out until the New Year. I'll update if needed. Thank you for joining this challenge. It was my first time hosting and I had a great time.
