Hey there, thanks for creating this challenge! I got involved on the site too late to do this last year and I'm excited about 2016!

Kudos to the people who assembled the resource list; that's great. I will be encouraging a few friends of mine to join the site just because I know they'd love this list.

I have a couple of questions. The first is: do re-reads count? I have read Mercedes Lackey's wonderful series The Last Herald-Mage of Valdemar before, but I tend to do a biannual re-read and I'm about due. If not that's fine; I'm sure I can find enough to keep me busy anyway. Looking forward to Lois McMaster Bujold's new book . . .

The second question: will this be an annual tradition? I see that a lot of the SF Masterworks books are also part of this collection but I'm not planning on reading them for a while; that challenge is reading them in order, one per month. (Of course there's no reason I can't read them ahead of time and then read them again, but it's been kind of fun to do them in order; it requires you to read things that might not otherwise appeal to you and then you learn things.)

Thanks!
