Books Won (0)
Books I Gave Up On (2)
- Left Neglected by Lisa Genova -- The narrator of this book absolutely annoyed the crap out of me. I only got to page 30 before I gave up in frustration.
- The Fringe Hours by Jessica Turner -- This book was recommended to me by many people. Unfortunately, Turner's constant inclusion of God turned me off.
Challenges Completed -- None this month
Comments - Somehow November just flew by and I got very little reading done. I think this might have been my lightest month this year. Hoping to finish the year out with some good reads.
