Thanks!!!! I'm waiting for the stroke of midday tomorrow so I can start my book!!
Thats exciting I start at noon but I will be working so I will start my audiobook on the way home
I've picked up all my books from the library so I'm ready to go.
I get to start at 9 am tomorrow morning!!
I also get to start at nine in the morning. That's fine as a starting time, but having the toppler end at 9 a.m. a week later means I pretty much have to finish my reading Friday night, since I am not likely to get up early enough on Saturday to finish anything before nine.
11 am for me is start time. So funny how it sounds like we're all starting at different times, but we're really all starting in sync!
Watched Cool Runnings before I started to read. Put me down for 5 points!

Had to add it. I've enjoyed short stories more this last year, well, except for the one I'm listening to now.

No award required - just made into a film qualifies.
