It's been a good week. A happy week. I've got a big stack of books that need to be reviewed. Of course, that stack is oh-so-much-smaller than the stack of books I still want to read before the year is up! I've also visited the library--so a library loot post is coming. But I checked out so very many books--that making the loot post is looking a bit intimidating! So you can just imagine the overwhelmingness that is to come of trying to decide to what to read first?!
