Welcome to the final thread of the 50 Book Challenge for this year.

The challenge is to read fifty books (or more!) in 2016, though reading fifty isn't mandatory. Any type of book can count, please try to let us all know your thoughts on what you've read, and to anyone who hasn't posted, feel free to de-lurk and share with us what you've read so far this year.

The first thread of 2016 is here, second thread here, third thread here, fourth thread here, fifth thread here and sixth thread here.

"final thread" > is that a challenge to us to fill up another one in record quick time, southeast?

Anyway, I've reached 100! With My Antonia by Willa Cather, much reviewed and enjoyed on the previous thread. I also liked it a great deal, in a grown-up-Little-House-on-the-Prarie sort of way, really more for the descriptions of place than the story per se. I particularly enjoyed the first section where they were children. (However, I am guilty of reading Farmer Boy and coming away with useful gardening tips, so perhaps not the most discriminating novel reader.)
