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.
