  • I'm behind here. I only read one

    Water for Elephants

    Sadly I found the movie MUCH better than the book, in fact, the book was so bad it slowed down my reading. Now that we just finished March I'm slightly ahead with 4 books for the year, I hope to surpass my average of 15 books a year.
