The year has come to a close, so here’s a run down of how I did in meeting the 2015 Reading List from PopSugar.

There were a total of 50 different categories to read a book in, so I decided right off the bat that I would need to mark each category a book fell under to meet the total goal for the year.  It might seem a bit lazy, but you will see in the lists below that I had many categories with multiple books in them.
