Also have a #6 -- am I reading it right that we need two #6 books?
Working on a #10!
I'm an hour and a half out from TWD and am honestly not looking forward to it as much as I usually do. I'm glad to hear it's not too bad this week. I had a dream that Judith gets kidnapped earlier this week! TWD - Unhealthy obsession or harmless entertainment? You decide!I'm really going to miss this group after WOBBLE!!

Do not want to commit to any task right now."I hear you, Maritza! I'm torn in so many directions... I want to read some spooky Halloween stuff, but they're all so long...
