Mary X (marymaryalwayscontrary) | 1103 comments Hey so I was just reading that Marisa De Los Santos lives in Delaware. I read her Love Walked In awhile back and it was pretty good. I might see if hte library has her 2nd book on audio.

Just thought I'd throw that out there for anyone looking for a Delaware book.

ETA: Belong to Me by Marisa de los Santos: getting that on audio CD from library to use for Deleware. Oh and that works my 2nd in a series challenge as well.

message 116: by Mel W (new)

Mel W (melw) | 981 comments Okay, January's challenge has officially started!

I've been MIA recently but the renovations are finally complete and things are gradually getting back to normal around here. Thanks for your patience! I will be finalising all updates to December 2010 this week, and updating the leaderboards this week.

A slight change to the regularity of updates since I won't, initially, be participating in this challenge on a regular basis ... I will post a list at the beginning, then update around the middle of the month, and then the final update at the end of the month.

Okay, will be back shortly with this month's participants!

Good luck, everyone!
