Goodreads 2016 Challenge

I guess I'm kind of doing this the wrong way around- it's not informing my reading massively, but I'm sort of ticking them off as I go along and finding a category that each book fits into. 1Q84 was quite a tricky one- number in the title, translated from another language, over 500 pages...could've gone in many categories!
