SarahKat | 5918 comments Sign me up for 22. Like Kristin, I just want to see where I end up for this one while doing all my other ones. Half the fun is squeezing books into prompts. But I refuse to do the last 2. Reading a local author this year was bad enough. And there are no "cities" within 100 or 200 or 500 km of mine.
