Cassandra Page (cassandrapage) When I moved house last year I did rehome a box of books to the local charity shop, but there are a few more that I was sitting on the fence with.

That's a good idea:) I've done that occasionally, but not for awhile...

David Ross Wood (goodreadscomdavidrosswood) | 14 comments Brenda what a great challenge you have before you. I wish I had more time to read, though this year I am going to make time. My shelves are full of books waiting to be read and I think it is time to blow off the dust and get to it!

Thanks David:) I hope to greatly diminish my owned books and hopefully not replace them with (too many) more!

I hope you manage to get to some books yourself...there's nothing better!

David Ross Wood (goodreadscomdavidrosswood) | 14 comments Oh I will, in fact I have decided not to add another book to the collection until I have read four on the shelf. Four steps forward then one step back!

Even though I haven't reduced my OWNED Aussie authors by very much (so far), I have actually finished my AWW challenge for 2015. I have read and reviewed 100 Aussie Women Writers between 1st January and the 29th August:) I'm happy with that! Of course, I'll be continuing :)

I'll definitely have to rethink my personal challenge for next year! The high hopes I had have been over-ridden by new books;)

With a total of 23 read for this challenge, I can quite happily say I didn't do very well at all!!! I underestimated how many new releases I would want to read!

So my 2016 challenge will be different;)

Not sure yet Laura...I'm actually really stumped about a personal challenge for next year!!! I'll probably check what others are doing to see if I can get some ideas:)
