Congrats Donna Jo! I'm not as fast of a reader as a lot of ya'll but I'm really proud at my accomplishment so far, I've never read so many books as I have since the beginning of this challenge!

Oh, Jayme, that is too bad. It's bad enough to lose a book (unless you WANT to), but losing a library book...and to not be finished reading it.
