  1. Great list & well done for keeping the size of it manageable. I kept adding to mine - so now I'm only just half way through the list with one year to go!! Oops!

    1. I've been "reading" some on audio books. Some of the narrators are terrific. Hope you are able to complete your list, even if it is not done within the set amount of time!
