Thank you both for the explanations. I'll make a 2017 bookshelf and try the tracker (I don't think I ever utilized that this year).

I take it the new 2017 group was deleted and both years will now be here, but I'm not sure how or if our books read for the two years will be kept separate here. Do we have to create our own bookshelves for each challenge in order to do so?

I'm about halfway through it and enjoying it so much that I'm thinking about getting it for my dad on Audible (he's a WWII era vet so I'm sure he'll love it too).

I'm planning on "doubling up" or overlapping books so that some books can be counted for two or three different challenges (not categories in this challenge). Otherwise, I'll never make my goal.

A few other reading challenges:
