I'm participating in The Sunday Post, hosted by Kimba the Caffeinated Book Reviewer; Showcase Sunday hosted by Books, Biscuits and Tea; Stacking the Shelves, hosted by Tynga's Reviews, and Library Loot co-hosted by The Captive Reader and The Adventures of an Intrepid Reader that
encourages bloggers to share the books they’ve checked out from the
library. All of these memes give book bloggers the chance to share print
and digital books
they've received, and posts and events at their blogs.
It's almost Christmas! One more day until vacation!! My school is open Monday and then closed until January 2nd. I am so ready for a break.Over the break, I'll be reading, relaxing and car shopping. I'm not looking forward to that last one but I think my current car is on its last legs so I need to look around. What are you all doing for the holidays?

ReplyDelete30 pages were gone from the library book? Oh, that is evil ... and kind of funny in a mean spirited way. But mostly evil. Glad you were able to get a complete version.
Have a great break!
I have to see if our library has C&C.
