2011 YA Reading Challenge Wrap-Up

Thanks to Jamie at Jamie's Bookshelf for hosting this event.

So back when I started this blog in July this was the only challenge I was interested in because it was just a general challenge I knew I'd be able to finish. The thing is, I COMPLETELY surpassed what I thought I could do. I started this challenge halfway through the year and originally set my goal at 20. I surpassed that by the end of September so I upgraded to the jumbo sized challenge which was to read 40 books. I completed that goal by November 16. So I completely underestimated how much I could read in only half a year! Lol. So lets get to the books I finished shall we???

Ok, just so everyone knows. Some of the books I read earlier in the year (books near the top of the list) I still havent reviewed on the blog yet, so for those that I do have reviews of I'll post the link. And a few near the bottom I've just finished or are about to finish so I haven't written the review yet. So I'll list those as well and then post the links once I write and post the reviews. Ok? :)
