Reading Challenge Wrap Up: Cruisin' Through the Cozies and Craving for Cozies 2017

I read a lot of cozies this year, which made the Cruisin' Through the Cozies and Craving for Cozies easy "challenges" for me this year.  I made it to 94.  I would have been cool to make it to 100, but I'm proud of how close I came.  I easily beat my minimum levels in both.  In Cruisin', I was aiming for two in each category and twenty of my own choosing for a total of forty.  In Craving, I went for the Ravenous level, which was 61-80.

Below, you'll see everything I read, including the ones for the categories.
