Bingo. For books. Okay, I'm convinced. Hosted here.
Unfortunately, I had to customize the board a little as I could never read fifteen new releases.
Instead, I made it 'new authors' - authors that I've never read before.

As I've never really read many fairy tale retellings, I wanted to start off small and not try to do too much. Besides, I'm not sure how this will relate to the other challenges I've got going. (Line through means I've read it. Link takes you to my review.)
