This challenge was to read 20 books from your TBR list between December 1st, 2009 and December 31st, 2010. AND you€™re supposed to refrain from buying books until you have read or attempted to read all 20 of your chosen books, unless you need to buy a book for a book group. You also have to write a blog post about each book as you finish (or decide you can€™t finish) it.
I initially chose 20 books to read but gave myself leeway to read books I didn€™t list and to buy books as well if I wanted to.
These are the books I’ve read, all of which I owned before December 1st 2009:
- Wolf Hall by Hilary Mantel
- Be Near Me by Andrew O€™Hagan
