Hogwarts Reading Challenge

It has been far too long since I last posted here. I wasn't going to do any challenges this year (aside from attempting to read 100 books), but I came across this one and had to join in.

The rules (or some of them, at least. You can find them all here.):

In the Hogwarts Reading Challenge you are a student of the school. You will be sorted into houses. Each book you read must fit in to the subject of one the classes. You do not have to read books that fit all the subjects. Each book equals one point (toward the house cup).

You must read at least 5 books (audio books counts) before you are enter in to the drawing. At the end of the Challenge one person will win a $15 Amazon Gift Card and one house will win the House Cup (purely a pride thing).

As for my sorting...
