I had another good week and am enjoying my current books very much. And I finished a challenge this week, yeah me!! My biggest problem is that I can't read fast enough to get through all the books that I want to read. We'll be going on vacation soon and I hope to get lots of quality reading time in while I'm gone.

Yay for Harry Potter!
I'm seeing a lot of Jane Austen out there today! Good luck with your challenges!
I am so far behind on the 1% well read challenge! You are doing a great job.
I second what Amanda says! Love H.P.
