Laura (apenandzen) | 3367 comments Finished The Sins of the Fathers for the book about alcohol (College task)!

Woot!

Ashley will be here in the morning, so I doubt I'd get any more books read by noon tomorrow. But if we really need another book, I could try one tomorrow.

For now, gotta watch the O's (hopefully) beat the Blue Jays with the hubby!

'Night all!

I'm going over to our other thread to see if there's another book that needs reading. (Who am I kidding? There are millions of books out there that need reading. Hopefully I can read a good percentage of them over my lifetime!)
