Great African Reads discussion

I cheated in that I added these after the fact. I had been meaning to do this all year and decided to see what I read in 2020 that might apply.

That's not cheating! Or if so, then I have cheated in all my challenges, ever. If I write a list, I'll almost certainly never read the ones on it. So I bingo as I go - then I make an effort, when I see what I'm missing.
Nice list of reading you got through :)

I agree with Anetq! Your list is inspiring, especially M'Hashish and Sisters' Entrance! Thanks for sharing!

Congratulations for completing the bingo challenge Diane! I did mostly the same, reading books and then see how they match the squares and categories.

Thank you for participating in this year’s bingo challenge!

Would you like to see a new bingo challenge for 2021?
