26 Books Challenge Update

So since it's been a while since my last book review for the 26 Books Challenge, I figured it was time for an update.  With the birth of my niece last fall, I put some of the reading on hold so I could complete some projects for her.

Below is the list of books from the challenge, sorted by completed/not completed and with notes as applicable.

COMPLETED (14):
(links to individual reviews in titles. Pages read: 4,339)
IN PROGRESS (2):
  • Read a book you started but never finished (can you say ironic?)
    • Juvenilia – Jane Austen
  • Read a book “everyone” but you has read
    • Diary of a Young Girl – Anne Frank
NOT COMPLETED (10):
  • Read a book you own but haven’t read
    • Last of the Mohicans – James Fenimore Cooper
  • Read a book published this year
    • Unashamed – Lecrae
  • Read a book by an author you’ve never read before
    • The Sound and the Fury – William Faulkner
  • Read a book at the bottom of your “to read” pile (given the prompt, no surprise this one isn't in the "completed" list yet...)
    • Wuthering Heights – Emily Bronte
  • Read a book with a color in the title
    • The Call of the Wild/White Fang – Jack London
  • Read a book of poems
    • Olney Hymns – William Cowper
  • Read a book with a blue cover
    • Love Does – Bob Goff
  • Read a book you were supposed to read in school but didn’t
    • The Scarlet Letter – Nathaniel Hawthorne
  • Read a book that is more than 10 years old
    • Robinson Crusoe – Daniel Defoe
  • Read a book based on a true story
    • Monuments Men – Robert M. Edsel
Stay tuned for more updates!  I have not given up on the challenge yet - after all, I am more than halfway through!
