1. Consider Phlebas - Iain M Banks
2. Letters from the Horn of Africa - Sandy and Christian Curle
3. Sisters of Sinai - Janet Soskice
4. The Middle-aged Mountaineer - Jim Curran
5. Huntingtower - John Buchan
6. The Man in the Queue - Josephine Tey
7. The Fair MIss Fortune - D.E. Stevenson
8. Charlotte Fairlie - D.E. Stevenson
9. Lorraine Kelly's Scotland - Lorraine Kelly
10. A Shilling for Candles - Josephine Tey
11. Tea Time for the Traditionally Built - Alexander McCall Smith
12. Letters from Skye - Jessiac Brockmole
13. The Hills is Lonely - Lilian Beckwith
A nice mixed bag of titles, some fiction and some non-fiction and I enjoyed each and every one. Many thanks to Peggy for hosting this new challenge and for doing it so well.

You did well on this challenge. I don't remember how many I did and I have not done a wrap up post. I aimed at the lowest level so as not to stress myself. I will be doing it again because I have so many books that I want to read that fits the challenge.
I should set myself a personal DES challenge. Wouldn't it be fun to read her for a whole year?!
Thanks, Tracy! Good luck with doing the challenge again this year.
Nan: I think a personal DES challenge would be delightful. I have to search for more of her books this year.
A very eclectic group of books Cath! Glad you enjoyed it!
Thanks Peggy!
I think you can give yourself a real pat on the back for the way you ran your first challenge. Some people announce them and just disappear. You were always around commenting on peoples' posts, running the Goodreads group, and really doing a sterling job. :-)
Oh, thanks so much,Cath! I felt like I was around enough. You encourage me!
My pleasure, Peggy. :-)
