Just finished Red Mars which completes this challenge for me. Though I only read 9 books.

Red Mars is a strange-ish sort of book I think. Easily the longest sci-fi I have read and there is two more after. Most scifi I have read is between 200-300 pages. I expected it to be mostly about terraforming but it was more in the way of colonization though I have read more terraforming occurs in the second so looking forward to this. At times the book seemed almost boring with some of the science and geology and landscape descriptions going on. However in all this I found myself zipping through it - strange.
