2015 is over (naturally I'm late getting this post created because that's how I roll) which means it's time for my last Platypire Read-A-Thon results post of the year. I feel like I didn't get many books read in December, it was kind of a busy month for everything else in real life, but let's see how I did, shall we?

So, thanks to the short stories that I read this month in order to complete my Goodreads reading challenge (because short stories count), it looks like I did get quite a few books read this month. I did make an okay dent in my list, sort of, except that most of those books weren't even on my list to begin with. And I added several books to my currently reading shelf (two of them because I have to read them in January and I can't start any new books until I get my currently reading shelf down to only five books). I guess in the new year I should resolve to do a better job at sticking to my lists :) - Katie
