An introduction is a good start! Hello Megann.

Hello Lydia and Bob.

What is your name or nickname? My name is Harold.
Cake, cookie or pie? Pie most definitely!
Where are you from? Canada

It's nice to me..."

Hello Harold! Welcome.

This will be my seventh book by Atwood that I've read. I've been meaning to get around to it, but I keep on being distracted. That's the problem with lists, sometimes you just burn out.

It can be a bit overwhelming at times, I know. Just remember that it is for fun, not another task on your to-do list!

Really, tiramisu in a special category that I have not considered, it contains cookies, but is more similar to a cake or a custard... You just had to break the question, didn't you?

Hello.
It happens. The app hates my phone, so I just deleted it.

Those short stories slowly take over things, but if you don't put down each one individually you miss can miss one!

Hello!

Hello Traci. To be honest, Florida was enough information, because I'd be luck to be able to find Tallahassee on a map of Florida. My middle school teachers spent much time pounding the state capitals into my head, but very little on any actual locating skills.

Allison wrote: "Oh dear. Spelling mistakes are my biggest pet peeve. Feel free to make fun of my stupidity. It was just a typo though. I swear I can spell my own country's name. On good days anyway!"

Ha. There are some days I wish I could change my country's name, but I usually don't go far enough to attempt it. I am such a pedant sometimes I feel like I should get a shock collar to stop me from correcting people.

Allison wrote: "Hello everyone. My name is Allison. As for my favourite beverage, my cup of tea is a cup of tea. My most read author would probably be a toss up between George R.R. Martin and [a..."

Hello. You have no idea the pain it is causing me right now to not make 1,000 jokes about Canda.

Hello. I have read very little from either author there. (Though I did go through the practically required Laura Ingalls Wilder stage when I was younger, it was very abbreviated.)

Allyson wrote: "Hi everyone, I'm Allyson. I'm an American expat living in Australia who can not imagine life without a book in my hand...truly, I panic if I walk out of the door without some form of book with me...."
Hello Allyson! The BBC is not one of the lists I have attempted to tackle yet, but it does look tempting.

Hello.
A little late to the start, but it seems like this year is flying by. Vonnegut is taking over for March!
How are you planning on reading this month's book, if you're not an early bird that's already finished? Grabbing a hard cover from the library, buying the e-book, audio?

Personally,I plan on rocking Oyster for this one, as soon as I finish one of the five I have in rotation right now. (I know, I have a problem.)

Nelleke wrote: "Hi! I am Nelleke, I like tea, carrots and chocolat (no pies or cake or cookies, unless there's chocolat in it).
I like russian classics and authors like Oscar Wilde and Jane Austen."

I can respect a fellow chocolate enthusiast. Welcome.

Now I have even more authors I do not recall hearing of before to research. Oh dear.
