Just thought I'd update this...why I dunno cause I havent read much but I'm almost done with my current book (by Sara Monettet...) and need to start thinking of where to go next...
You know, once I finish a book, I look at my collection and wonder who to read next...its a very hard choice...I have so many to chose from...*sigh* it shall never end for me...I love books too much and they are too much like friends to give them up...just wished I had the time and engery to keep reading! And I guess drive to keep reading a book that hasnt fully pulled me under its spell

Even if it is brief... welcome to my world of little sleep and busy days!

That's so cool when library's are on the up and up with new books. It seems to take ours forever sometimes to get a new title in. Hope you get some good sleep in tonight!
Wow! And I thought I read a lot!
I don't have time to read like that. I wish I did.
I wish I was as avid of a reader as you. LOL.
Fire Study. Though at least out here I had a little bit of trouble finding it righta way.
@Crisi83 - dont have fire study...its a hardback and I dont get many of those...
Its in paper back now... I finally got a copy today. Though maybe I'll give it to you for Christmas.....
@Crisi83 - is magic study out in paper back too? I do have poision study in paperback...but thats the only one...
I like your plan
If it helps any, I haven't read a real adult book (that isn't about parenting and if you count that, that is only one) since the summer before Steph was born. So it has been like three years since I've read a real book. But the kids and I read a lot of little kid books.
