I ready have my four books, just in case one doesn't click with me. Plus I also have a goal of at least 40 books this year. These prompts are great! It really helps narrow my reading decisions. I can't wait to share my reviews!

I read and finished my first book of the year, Keeping Mum by Alyse Carlson. My review is here. I'm going to try to get another one of the criteria met before the end of January, but it's nice to know I don't have to. :D

Four books ready? Wow, that's great. I'm reading one now, by an author new to me. And I've got a book with "One" in the title ready to read.

I'm so glad this challenge is helping you. And good luck with your goal!

It worked when I posted it but I've noticed a problem with my page since then. I couldn't fix it so I've sent an e-mail to the help desk hopefully they'll be able to fix it for me, but I glad you found it.

I finished my first book of the year which also happens to be a first in series. I believe I'll continue on reading the series and the next book unfortunately doesn't fill any of the other requirements, but that doesn't prevent me from reading it. :)

My review of the book I read is here. Dead Until Dark by Charlaine Harris

Congratulations on completing the January prompt, Inkeri!

I was lucky enough to be able to visit a city in Finland when I traveled in Europe. I loved it! It's one of my favorite memories of being in Europe.

The link works now not sure if it was BL magic or just that the evil computer gnomes have moved on but I redid it and it works. Go me!
