19th Challenge Completed!

This year's Notable Book Challenge was an expanded version of the NYT Notable Book Challenge of last year.  Many lists of books were available for the choosing and there was no minimum book requirement.  I, once again, chose 6 books - all being Young Adult, except one.  My original intent was not to read all YA, but that's how it evolved.  Rating wise, this turned out to be a pretty successful challenge.

Thank you Wendy from Notable Books for hosting this challenge!
