I really enjoyed this one. Unfortunately, I found myself getting sucked into new releases from the library for the last few months, but the library is closing for a renovation so destiny is pushing me to focus on finishing this challenge!

I'll need to read approx. 2 books / week (I usually read at least 4 books in a given week, so this is doable. It's more about focus....)

22. An American Marriage - finished 11/6

Extremely good. This was a quick and absorbing read with well-developed characters.

23. The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde - finished 11/7

This was the audiobook performed by Richard Armitage. Really good.

I'm very pleased to have hit my goal of 2 books this week from my TBR. Just one more until I'm on to the next peak! Just need to stay focused on 2 books / week.

24. Helping Your Child with Extreme Picky Eating: A Step-by-Step Guide for Overcoming Selective Eating, Food Aversion, and Feeding Disorders - abandoned 11/13

I am not going to finish this but it was actually extremely helpful. Just by changing a few things suggested in the beginning of the book things have drastically improved.

And I'm on to Mount Vancouver!
