Contentment Reading Challenge 2013 - Final Update



It is now time for the final post of this challenge!
The total number you've all been waiting for!

But first, these are the books I read in December.

  • Christmas in the Country by Christine Lynxwiler and Jeanie Smith Cash
  • On the Anvil by Max Lucado
  • Marcia Schuyler by Grace Livingston Hill
  • Christmas at Harrington's by Melody Carlson
  • The Christmas Shoppe by Melody Carlson
  • The Christmas Pony by Melody Carlson
  • Patchwork Holiday by Wanda E Brunstetter, DiAnn Mills, Renee De Marco and Colleen L Reece
  • A Victorian Christmas Quilt by Catherine Palmer, Peggy Stoks, Debra White Smith and Ginny Aiken
  • Two Tickets to the Christmas Ball by Donita K Paul
  • Moments of Peace for the Evening (Anonymous)
  • Listen by Rene Gutteridge
  • A Gown of Spanish Lace by Janette Oke
So that was 12 for the month!!

Which takes me to ... drum roll please ...

84 for the year!!!

Now for one last thing ...

I also did this challenge in 2011 (only 48 books that time), and I was curious to know if there were any books that I read for both challenges. In fact, there were 10!
  • Marcia Schuyler by Grace Livingston Hill
  • A Gown of Spanish Lace by Janette Oke
  • Every Storm by Lori Wick
  • Sophie's Heart by Lori Wick
  • Never the Bride by Cheryl McKay and Rene Gutteridge
  • Two Tickets to the Christmas Ball by Donita K Paul
  • Yuletide in Ireland and Wales by Ginny Aiken and Tamela Hancock Murray
  • English Carols and Scottish Bagpipes by Pamela Griffin and Jill Stengl
  • True Devotion by Dee Henderson
  • True Valor by Dee Henderson
While I won't be doing a challenge in 2014, there are sure to be some books that I read again - probably even from the books I've read during these challenges!

Happy reading and have a safe and Happy New Year!

Beth, you amaze me!! Forty-eight in 2011 and eighty-four in 2013 - those are spectacular totals!! That's so wonderful that you've been able to enjoy so many reads more than once. :) (Loved A Gown of Spanish Lace and Two Tickets to the Christmas Ball, as well!)

Thank you so much for participating in this challenge and putting so much time and effort into it! I hope you have a blessed new year! :)
