[Suzanne]

I finished reading Empire of the Summer Moon: Quanah Parker and the Rise and Fall of the Comanches, the Most Powerful Indian Tribe in American History for the March group read challenge!

[Casceil]

Good News: I have finished Mickey's Marchers!

Bad News: When I tried to put a book in my Roadrunner's Racers message, Goodreads was in a bad mood. The "add book" function wasn't working right. Goodreads informed me that there was a problem saving my message. Goodreads deleted the message, so I am going to be tacking Roadrunner's Racers on to the end of the Mickey's Marchers message. Sorry about that.

[Anna]

Finished Slick's Slugs. :)

It's so much easier for me than waiting till the end of the year and having a huge task on my hands.

Way to go, Ann! Your badge is posted.

✔ 2) Within a Budding Grove by Marcel Proust 768 pp. 2/8/14

✔ 3) The Firebird by Susanna Kearsley 544 pp. 2/19/14
