I tried to resist making another reading thread, but here it is.
If it doesn't have a line through it, I'm still reading it or planning to read it, unless it's in the Lagniappe category, in which case I've already read it.
My main reading thread is here.
If it is bolded, it's for the challenge. Anything extra is...extra.
If you have suggestions, please let me know.
