I am currently reading two books, both of which will appear on my list after I'm done with them.

Winter is inevitable. Spring will return eventually, and AstralHunter with it.
I've been so useless with this. I've only read like four books this year so far, but I just updated mine again! With beta reads by some of our favourite YWSers

A book about my town, Nowhere, New Hampshire? That one might be a little bit tough.
@TheWanderingWizard I assumed so, but one of the things on the list is "a book that you started but never finished" which sounds like it was started a while ago, as never is a very long time
And come to think of it... I think I've only read one book this year (started and finished it).

Prok once said something about Nate and apple pie. I forget the context.
@JKHatt, for that one, I took it as a book you started sometime before 2015, put down for whatever reason, then finished in 2015 to complete the challenge.
For all the others, I think you need to start and finish in 2015 to count.

@niteowl well then, I guess that book (that I never finished) is going to be waiting for a future reading challenge Luckily I've purchased a lot of books recently, so I have some material to read that will hopefully fill these requirements.

Just realized that we are missing A book that made you cry from the lists we took in the coding. If you want to add it in, then do so

@Deanie, I also noticed that A book that was published the year you were born is missing. I only noticed because it gave me an excuse to read Good Omens again. As if I need an excuse.

Realised today that 'A book published the year you where born' is the perfect excuse for a Harry Potter reread, since The Philosopher's Stone was published the year I was born.
