Just realized that I had made it half-way through my century of books (my declared goal for 2018). Simon at Stuck in a Book has challenged us through the A
Century of Books Challenge to review a hundred years' worth of books (1919-2018). Any books, any genre--fiction, non-fiction--didn't matter. And we could set our pace. Since I have so many challenges, I decided 50 per year for 2018 and 2019 should be about right. But to make it a little trickier, I'm going to try and fulfill every
year with a mystery or mystery-related book.
Here's my list of 51 books read so far with their years:
