West Virginia Reads & Runs

Here are some of the basic rules:

• Read 101 fantasy books from the list of 101 or 75 titles from the list and 26 that are not on the list = 101 books total.
• The list must be made in advance.
• 10 years

So here it goes:

September, 2013 – September, 2023

Up to book 82 are on the 101 list after that they are of my own choosing. I have placed some sequels on here to books I have not read so I may need to swap out if I find to do not link the initial book.
