Is it just me, or did this challenge finish way too quickly? I actually had to go back and read the challenge rules again to make sure the challenge ended yesterday and didn't last through the end of January. Sure enough, it did end last night at 11:59 p.m., and six people have already finished! So maybe I'm the only one who has been slacking. ;) Here is the current scoreboard:

Please be sure to follow this format when you check in, and don't forget page numbers! Remember all books must be at least 200 pages long unless otherwise specified.

Be sure to comment on this post with your final check-in by January 7 in order to be included in the final scoreboard, which will be posted on January 10. Thanks for participating! :)

P.S. — I might not have done so hot with this challenge, but I did read a lot of great books this year! Check out my favorite books I read in 2013 here. And Happy New Year!
