  7. I'm so impressed, even if you don't make it to 100! It seems like reading so much would make a real difference in how you see the world... Sadly, the only time I ever read that much was in grad school, and over the past year since I graduated, I've read some awfully silly books! Oh well, I think I'm about to become an expert in children's literature, thanks to the new addition to our family. Take care!

  10. I'm so envious of your great reading numbers this year. I'll be scraping by with a sad 50 or so reads, which is down from last year.
