I have somehow neglected to sign up for this year's challenge.
I'll be listing the books I've read in 2016, probably on a monthly basis. I'm hoping to reach a round 100 books read!

80 Butterflies in November - Auður Ava Ólafsdóttir
Icelandic story of a woman and a boy on a road trip around Iceland.
81 How (Not) to Start an Orphanage - Tara Winkler
The story of how a young Australian woman opens an orphanage in Cambodia in a naive attempt to help disadvantaged Cambodian children. It's incredible to think that a woman with absolutely no training or experience in child welfare, charity work or the Cambodian culture/way of life could be allowed to basically swan in and take over the care of a group of children. Happily, it appears that she now sees the error of her ways and has modified her charity's work. Hopefully the children have not suffered too much for it.
82 It's Christmas - Tina Burke
A children's book about Christmas.
83 First Blood: a Cultural Study of Menarche - Sally Dammery
A quite scholarly book about women's experience of menarche. Stumbled across this book at my local library. Not quite sure why it is part of their catalogue - not the sort of thing I'd image most people would be interested in. But, still, it's there!
84 Great Australian CWA Stories - Bill 'Swampy' Marsh
A collection of recipes and CWA members' stories of how they came to join the Country Women's Association.

Biography of an Australian comedian. It ends on a tragic note but I have heard that there have been happier times since the book was written.
86 All You Need is Luck - Frank Nelson
A New Zealand husband and wife decide to pack it all in and go travelling. This is an account of the first two years travelling. It seems a bit strange that, with an entire world to explore, they seem to have confined themselves to the UK, USA and Australia. Perhaps it's a language and work visa issue. I hope they have managed to spread their wings a bit further since!
87 Cairns Botanic Gardens - Cairns Regional Council
A brief history and description of the Cairns Botanic Gardens.
88 Riding Rockets - Mike Mullane
Autobiography of an American astronaut. Mullane comes across as incredibly self-absorbed, egotistical and sexist. Let's hope he'd become a more bearable work colleague since then.
89 Red Dust Road - Jackie Kay
Autobiography of an adopted child. If I were ever adopted, I'd hope it would be by the same kind of parents that Jackie was adopted by!
90 Harry Potter and the Cursed Child - JK Rowling, Jack Thorne, John Tiffany
A script of the Harry Potter play currently being staged in London. There are a couple of plot twists in there. Now that I've read it, I'm curious as to how the play is actually being staged!
91 Tales of the Honey Badger - Nick Cummins
A rugby player writes an autobiography of sorts. Amusing, but doesn't require much brain power to read.
92 Easily Distracted - Steve Coogan
An OK autobiography but Part 2 of the book was much more interesting than Part 1.
