EEK! Not doing at all well on this challenge,only 2 books read so far. I have been concentrating too much on the 1950s challenge! Oh well,at least this month I have Terry Pratchett's Making Money,and Ann Leckie's Ancillary Justice pencilled in,but need to pull my socks up

I just finished Flowers for Algernon by Daniel Keyes (maybe the most major SF book I hadn't already read?) to complete this challenge and also to complete all of my challenges due in 2015. Hurrah.

My 12 were:

Tehanu - Ursula le Guin - Locus Fantasy
Throne of the Crescent Moon - Saladin Ahmed - Locus First Novel
The Heir of Night - Helen Lowe - Morningstar
Ancillary Sword - Ann Leckie - Locus SF
The Separation - Christopher Priest - Clarke
The Moment of Eclipse - Brian Aldiss - BSFA
Tooth and Claw - Jo Walton - World Fantasy
The Three-Body Problem - Cixin Liu - Hugo
Timescape - Gregory Benford - Campbell
Some Kind of Fairy Tale - Graham Joyce - Holdstock
Sabriel - Garth Nix - Aurealis Fantasy
Flowers for Algernon - Daniel Keyes - Nebula

Hard to pick a favourite. Moment of Eclipse was maybe the one I got the least out of.

Is there any appetite for this challenge in 2016? Maybe with an additional level of reading one winner from each tracked award?

Edit - just had a look and 25 tracked awards plus Tiptree makes this a challenging aim indeed, maybe stick to 12 ha ha
