No matter how busy I get (and things are pretty busy!), I always find time to read.
This past quarter I read or listened to 17 books. Each had something to offer, there are none that I wish I had not read. Even the steamy Loving Scoundrel was fun. A personal favorite was Hattie Big Sky. And following Clearing in the Wild up with a trip to Aurora, OR was fun. The Word on the Street was a new twist on the Bible and the author’s testimony is pretty inspiring.

"Books to the ceiling, books to the sky. My piles of books are a mile high. How I love them! How I need them! I'll have a long beard by the time I read them." -Arnold Lobel
Happy reading!

Wow, that's quite an accomplishment. Looks like quite a variety of titles, too. :)
WOW! Good for you. I don't get to read nearly as often as I'd like.
Boy, you definitely crank out the books. Great way to keep the mind young! I need to be better about making the time to read. Somehow, after doing schoolwork most of the day with the kids, reading for pleasure doesn't appeal to me.
