I wish I had been able to get more read than I did, but overall this last week I managed to finish 770 pages, 2 magazines, start an audiobook and finished four books (well three and half really).
I hope everyone had a GREAT Bout of Books and I look forward to the next one in May!!

I hope you are having a wonderful Bout of Books! I started book four today. :)
ReplyDeleteI like reading Nora Roberts here and there. I don't think I have read these ones, but it is hard to keep track.
