Did I see a total of 44 novels? Are you going to hit your goal of 50 for the challenge this year.
You and I read some of the same books this year. I read:
Snow Flower and the secret fan
Love Walked in
Twilight series
The Graveyard Book
HP and the Deathly Hallows
You have some great books on your list.
Happy Holidays!
I’ve only read two of those books at all, the Harry Potter ones and I don’t remember if they were in 08 or not. No I think it was 07.
