Popsugar Reading Challenge 2017

[ ] A book by an author who uses a pseudonym
[ ] A bestseller from a genre you don't normally read
[ ] A book by or about a person who has a disability
[ ] A book involving travel

As you can see I might change it a bit (listen you guys, my local library just suck, it’s not my fault).
I also scaled back my goodreads challenge, because while I did read the 75 books I pledged, the challenge made me prioritise short books too much so I’m back at 65.
