The story behind this project...

If you ever come by here more than once you probably know

I LURVE Books

I love reading, and I even started a book blog, but unfortunately my life got a little too busy to keep up with it. Anyway, I probably read a couple hundred books a year, (I think, I've never counted) So I decided this year to keep track. I'm writing down the title and author of each book I read this year in this little notebook. For one, because I just wanna know, and two because it's getting to the point that as publisher's put out reprints I've caught myself several times purchasing books I've already read once. and um...3...I thought it would be fun!

I'm on number 12, I started Jan 1st.

And while I'm at it, let me just say I've recently discovered a new author that I really Like.

Shannon K Butcher

(click above for her amazon page)

has a few different series going on.

So far I've read Burning Alive Book 1 in the Sentinel Series (Paranormal) and

No Regrets Book 1 in the Delta Force series (think Susan Brockman but much spicier)

I'm on the waiting list at the library for the rest!!

I love the library! You can read all about my library smelling addiction
