Congrats :D

You have to tell us your favorites :)

Congratulations! I still hope to post the same at least on December 31st :-P

Thanks all!!!

For my faves - I really liked digging into Stephen King a bit more (and 2016 I'll continue that!!) Loved The Paper Magician and Ready Player One - had fun re-reading RL Stine's The First Horror.

Got to finish some series I've been working on, like Kat Richardson's GreyWalker series (done!) and Harlan Coben's Myron Bolitar series is almost done!

Great challenge! Can't wait to start 2016!!

nice job cherie

It's nice you liked The Paper Magician! I enjoyed the sample but the last time I checked the book page, the reviews were horrible, so I wasn't sure I wanted to really read it. I'll keep it in mind :)

Congratulations! :)

Thanks all!!
