And so, how was your reading month?
You're doing a lot better than I am. I still have about 30 books to read to make it to my goal of 100!!
ReplyDeleteI enjoy your short little comments on each book! Ella Minnow Pea and The Soldier's Wife are both waiting for me on my shelves. So much to choose from for next month!
ReplyDeleteSeptember was a good reading month for me. I was traveling in August and didn't get many books read, so September felt great reading-wise!
Hee hee. I liked your comment on Kiss Me Kill Me.
ReplyDeleteSeptember was not my best reading month number-wise, but I read several of the books that will make my best of list at the end of the year. I suppose it evens out! It has made it really hard for me read lately, though...
ReplyDeleteI am looking forward to reading Interview with a Vampire with you!
You had a great reading month in September.I think you can definitely reach your goal.
ReplyDeleteAny idea whaen you'll be reading the next wheel of time book?
