Yay I’ve completed the challenge, and reviewed all the books with a bit of time to spare! As to be expected only 4 were on my original list, so it’s a good job we’re allowed to swap books! Thanks for hosting again Cathy, it’s been great fun! 😀

You and I must make the same type of lists! 😂 4 out of the original 20 is good in my book!

I’m not surprised you selected alternate books (isn’t that always the way?). Congratulations, Nicki💜

Show off! I’m joking of course 😀 I’ve read four from my original list and I’m halfway through the fifth. But I have actually read another 22 books in the period of the challenge. But because I’m not so much a mood reader as a masochist I only count books I put on my original list. This is the reason I invariably fail. Oh well, there’s always next year…

That’s really impressive. Congratulations!
To be honest, if swapping books out wasn’t allowed I don’t think I’d ever nail this challenge. I have 3 to go but my reading mood seems to have gone on holiday 😬.

Congratulations, Nicki. I think one of the best things about this challenge is that we can choose what we want to read with no rules or restraints. Reading 20 books and 4 from your original list is a win!
