I started doing the 50 Book Challenge over on Shelfari in 2008. In 2015 I finally made it with 52 books read. Now to see if I can keep that level up this year. I'm starting January with 3 books I began reading in the last week of 2015. I'm also continuing my challenge to read as many of my unread Star Trek collection as possible by September and the 50th anniversary of Star Trek's TV premier in 1966. I don't remember whether I saw the first episode, but my parents did, and let my younger sister and I watch the series even when it was on past our bedtime.

January:
1. I.K.S. Gorkon 1: A Good Day to Die - Keith R. A. DeCandido
2. A Death at the Dionysus Club - Melissa Scott, Amy Griswold
3. Star Trek: Seven Deadly Sins - anthology
4. I.K.S. Gorkon 2: Honor Bound - Keith R.A. DeCandido
5. Queen Red Riding Hood's Guide to Royalty - Chris Colfer
6. XPath Kick Start - Steven Holzner
