I tried reading the Lucifer contract and got about 1/2 of the way through it and then skipped to the end to see who it was.

I am maybe a 1/4 of the way through Madame Picasso and have lost interest. Gonna move on to something different.

[Karin]

I never got around to reading more than a few pages of any of the books on my list. I will have to try again in the new year.

[Lea Ann]

I made it through 10 of my 12 which is pretty good for me.
