Melindam | 8527 comments I will finish Miss Buncle's Book by D.E. Stevenson .

It was my own recommendation, but as this is a Vanity mini, we should take pride in our own recommendations - at least this has been said in the Captains' Group. :)

Melissa | 247 comments Thank you for the birthday wishes! I am almost done with my book, give me another hour or two. I ended up running errands and getting sidetracked yesterday. But most importantly, I did not pack a single box, lol.

Are you going to finish the BOM as well? Might as well use that one rather than the shorter book you posted! :-)

Not adding this after all, ending this week with 44 books as something has gone wrong with a date/time zone thing for last week's book, so we're at 45 already.
