50 books in 2007

[clandescent]

Just finished the second Temeraire, which I actually preferred to the first. (I see there's a third one out now, I must check if my library has a copy.) It's going to be a bit of a push to make it to 50 books before the end of the year but I'm pretty sure I can do it. And without resorting to Dr. Seuss books haha. I have a few half-finished books lying about that I started at the beginning of the year and just lost interest in. I must try and finish a couple. My god this year has gone by so fast!



44/ 50 books. 88% done!
