I'm Home/ All My 2007 Reads

Hello everyone! You have no idea how good it feels to be back home in my own little space again. I just got back from a two week vacation in Georgia where my parents and my husband’s mom lives and although I’ve had internet access and still visited everyone as well as tried to keep updated I’ve pretty much been neglectful. Well I’m back! It was a wonderful visit although I’m still a little peeved that we arrived on my birthday and came home on hubby and mine’s first wedding anniversary :o(

Since I’m carrying everything into the house today I’m planning on taking a picture of all our Christmas presents (something I meant to do... honestly!) and I’ll put that picture up sometime today or tomorrow.

So how is 2008 treating everyone so far? Besides that godawful six hour car trip I just came out of, it’s been pretty good to me. I’ve noticed that people have been posting everything they read or a “best of” list from their 2007 reads and I’ve been keeping up with mine too for the past year and a half so I have a complete list of my 2007 reads. Let me tally up how many I read first (seriously, I’ve got to add the books I read while on vacation first and count up a total)..... oh I’m so ashamed! I only read 97 books in ‘07! In 2006 I managed 164 so although 97 seems like a big number it’s not really my finest effort. I’ll just have to do better this year won’t I?

I didn’t start my first blog here until last July so you won’t find reviews on books before then at my Movieholic and Bibliophile Blog but you’re more than welcome to leave comments on some of my first posts. Here’s my complete list:
