Reading Challenge Wrap-Up: 100+ Book Challenge

End of the year, so it is time to start wrapping up reading challenges.  This first one is the 100+ Reading Challenge.

I made it with flying colors.  I logged 155 books this year.  Yes, 12 of them were picture books and 16 of them were audio books.  But that still leaves me with 127 books I actually read.  Wow!  I never would have guessed I'd have that in me.  The funniest thing is, I didn't feel like I was pushing that much.
