Challenge Complete: The Official 2019 TBR Pile Challenge



I was very glad that Adam from Roof Beam Read started hosting the Official TBR Pile Challenge on a regular basis again. This is one of the first challenges I did when I started blogging and I love the ones that help me knock out some of those books that have been sitting around for a while.

I've now completed my original twelve books as well as the alternates on the list. Thanks, Adam!

Added 12/18/19: I'm sad to learn that Adam will not be hosting this again in 2020. As I mention above, this was one of the first challenges I did and I've always enjoyed reading through the year with Adam. Thanks so much for all the years of hosting, Adam!

Sorry folks, but I have been getting an incredible amount of spam. I have adjusted my settings and all messages will be moderated from now on. If that does not take care of the problem then I will have to go to the "Prove You're Not a Robot" thing--which I hate as much as you do.

If your name does not appear automatically, please tell me your name in the comment. Otherwise you will just show up as "Unknown." Thanks!
