Well, someone's been busy. And they say I'm a quick reader.
Bravo!

Don't like to be a pest but can I just remind challengers to re-post their lists as a new post when updating please. I only go through messages from update to update - I'd hate to miss anyone's updates.

Thanks Alathea and Mel but I will admit these were pretty short. Two novellas, a short story, a small biography, and 3 children's chapter books (Magic Tree House). I needed a reptile book to finish off the Jungle challenge and the Amazon book had a crocodile on the cover. In case I don't get to a western this month, the Thanksgiving on Thursday book has Squanto an american indian in it. Read Vacation under the Volcano as I needed a "V" title book to finish off A-Z book titles.
