Location: Great Lakes, USA		I finished my 10 books before December 31! I have had so many time consuming things going on, that I haven't had as much time to read and am not sure that I will finish my challenges. I thought I had updated my progress when I was half done, but that post must have been deleted during the website problems.

The Stepford Wives - ok. I remember this being such a big deal when I was a kid. According to my mom, I wasn't old enough to read/watch this on tv. Perhaps it was better when it was first published.

Great North Road - Good. I like Peter Hamilton - always a good story. One thing I will always remember about this book was having to borrow the ebook from the library because the print in my paperback copy was so small, I could barely see it.

Death of a Clone - Good. Another murder mystery involving clones, but not as good as Great North Road.

Dogs of War - Excellent. Dog soldiers who learn to think for themselves. Really liked this one.

Voyage of the Dogs - Very good. Poor dogs left alone, but they figure it out.

Infinity's End - Good collection of short stories.

The Wolves of Winter - ok. I have been reading too many dystopian/end of civilization books lately. But, there was a dog in this book too. Lots of dog books this year.

The Last Dog on Earth - good. Another dystopian/end of civilization books, but from the perspective of Lineker, the dog.

The Halloween Tree - good for a kid book.

The Goblin Reservation - fun. I have yet to dislike a Simak book.

Looking forward to this challenge again next year!
