Jim and I had fun reading from our libraries--I continued to do it and keep track for the rest of the year. I have about 300 more pages and I will have read 15,000 pages from my personal library in 2008. It's been fun and I plan to do it again next year--I have a lot of books I have been intending to read for years!
We had a nice visit with Jim and Valerie over Thanksgiving and I had a chance to read some stuff from his library--including my first ever graphic novel (unless you count the comic books I read as a child).
If you want to see some of the books I've read this year I have them entered with comments on my thread in the 75 Books Challenge for 2008.
I'll check back in January and see what else you have entered into your library!

I thought this might be you (you are a "friend" on JimPAX's LT Profile). Just wanted to leave a greeting. I hope things are going well with you in St. Louis and that you are looking forward to a merry Christmas. I enjoyed visiting your library.
