I loved The Golem and the Jinni, China Mountain Zhang and Redwood and Wildfire. Hollow City and Broken Homes were very good sequels in their respective series. The Hundred Thousand Kingdoms was a big disappointment to me.
I think I have 18 more actual books to read. Most of them are in the AoC category which fulfill other challenges as well. However, school begins soon, so there will be no more 13 book months for me! Luckily, most of the long books, except for Drood, are completed.
