My favorite book from this list was The Moonstone by Wilkie Collins, which I rated 5 out of 5. This surprised me, since I don't usually read mysteries. But a couple more of my favorites this year were also mysteries: Clouds of Witness by Dorothy L. Sayers and The Wheel Spins by Ethel Lina White. I rated those two 4 out of 5, along with The Importance of Being Earnest by Oscar Wilde, The Trial by Franz Kafka, Miss Buncle's Book by D.E. Stevenson, My Friend Flicka by Mary O'Hara, and My Antonia by Willa Cather. The remaining 4 books on the list I rated 3 out of 5: Middlemarch by George Eliot, Ethan Frome by Edith Wharton, My Brother Michael by Mary Stewart, and Gift From the Sea by Anne Morrow Lindbergh. I really enjoyed participating in the challenge again this year and hope that Karen K. of Books and Chocolate will host it again in 2016.
