  2. You did well this month. I've read Jar City and have copies of North River and Blindness to look forward to. I've read and left comments on those three reviews. Happy reading in February.

  5. J. Kaye ~ Thanks. I started something new (for myself) at the bottom of the post titled Monthly Genre Stats. That is to help me vary my reading. Without challenges, it's easy to slip into my comfort zone. However, my comfort zone has expanded tremendously, so I'm not a fish out of water too often anymore. :)

    Sandra ~ Thanks, Sandra. I'll be responding soon.

    Dar ~ Yeah, me too. :)

    Booklogged ~ I believe 2/3 of the books were audios. (I'm so happy to be able to listen while I work.) For years now, all I strive for is to read an average of one book a week, so if I make that in the handheld versions - I'm good.

  6. Wow...another great reading month for you!!! Oh, what I would do for one month like that. Of course, that ain't ever gonna happen if I don't get off this dang computer!

  7. Debi ~ The computer does take away a lot of reading time - for sure! Balance, balance, balance - such a tough concept to master, huh?
