I have finished the following:
#27 - The Boiling Season - Christopher Hebert (historical fiction)
#28 - The Thing Around Your Neck - Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie (short story collection)
#29 - Pretty Boy Problems - Michele Grant (romance)
#30 - Red Hot - Niobia Bryant

Well, this year I did better than in the past in that I read 13 books that were originally on my 30 book list. But except for the 4 on the original list that I started, but was not my cup of tea - I am still planning on reading the rest of my original list.

Okay, I miscounted. Bill Myers' The Presence (sequel to The Soul Tracker) is my actual thirtieth, and I just now finished that one. But either way, I completed the challenge :-).

It is finished! Soul Tracker by Bill Myers was my 30th book- finished the challenge again ahead of schedule. I went so far off my original list it's not even funny, but I got thirty in.

One more book to go! I finished Eli by Bill Myers (#27), The Single Sister Experiment (#28) and The Bride Experiment (#29)- the last two are both by Mimi Jefferson. I have two different books sitting here staring at me- I'll choose one for #30 and get into it tomorrow.
