Thanks Victoria!! :-) Hey Jenny, what did you think of Nil?

I'm in duplicate mode right now.

It was just an okay read for me. It never really hooked me, although I did like Thad and Charley, and I loved the ending!

A good ending helps make up for the rest :-)

It does Donna!

Great job Melissa!

Awesome job, Melissa!

Thanks all. This my favorite book challenge. I meant to join it at some point but just kept putting it of. I'm glad I did and happy to find I've read a lot of the letters all ready.

I am still at 15 books (too many duplicates) but not for long. Today I started my Q book.

Yay, Nancy. We'll be at 16 together! That's where I'm stuck right now. ;)

This is fun. :) I'm in too!

Thanks, Karen! Yeah, just six to go by my count too. I've got a rough idea what I'll read for most of them, I just need to get around to reading them. Plenty of time though... We're only about half way through June, after all.
