Reading Derby
“When you bet on the horse race, you bet for win, for place, for show.
When you buy books, you buy some to read, some to own, and some for reference.
You want to possess the books, you want to own them, you want to hold them.
Perhaps you even hope that you will read them.” - Louis Szathmary

Congratulations on having a record reading month! That's awesome! I'm starting to try to listen to more audiobooks, so knowing that you accomplished 4 in one month is very encouraging. :)
Susie - It was great to get so much read. I think the audio books had a lot to do with it! I realized there is lots of time that I can be listening to a CD - plus you just don't realize how much time you spend in the car! I have one book going in the car and one in the house.
