Summer 2017 Reading Finish Line

16/22 Books Completed (72.7%)

Summer is over (at least on the calendar, the weather is still very summer-like here until October). I had a very ambitious list of 22 books to tackle. I've read more than 22 books these past three months, but of course not all 22 books came from my original list. I get distracted by shiny library books. I still made a decent showing of my original list. Anyway, let's see how I did:
