Book Challenges/Clubs... Update 2

I know we talk about books on Show Us Your Books Tuesday, but I wanted to update my own personal challenge to see/show how much progress I've made.  Also, I didn't link up with the Literary Ladies when their challenge ended, so yeah, lets say this is for that?  Or for the fact that we spent the weekend in Orlando and I'm too exhausted to write up a weekend review post by Monday?  Yeah, let's just call this good planning.   

So let's see how I'm doing, shall we?

That's a lot of crossed off books!!!

Guantanamo Diary by Mohamedou Ould Slahi
STILL in progress.  I may end up giving up on this one because I feel like they are trying to brainwash me.  I would like to finish it since I actually bought a hard copy of the book, but I doubt it. When I get to pages with lots of redactions, I get super excited.

Book title starts w/ same letter as my last name (R):
Redeployment by Phil Klay
Review Here.

# in the title:
100-Year-Old Man Who Climbed Out of the Window and Disappeared by Jonas Jonasson
I tried and couldn't on this one.  I listened to it on audiobook and had I been reading it, I probably wouldn't have got past page 50.



I've completed 10 (and quit 1) out of 16! 
That's not too bad for 3 very busy, transitional, months.
