Another Challenge Wrestled Into Submission

Back in July I signed up for the Monthly Mix-up Mania Challenge. What: To read a book for each letter in the year. That's right, a title for the J in January and the A in January, etc.... 74 books total! And with K. K. Beck's Electric City (which contained the last "E" that I need for Decemeber), I am now done.
