Two Years with Booker
This is very ambitious - Good luck!
A fellow Book Crosser is attempting to read all the Booker Prize Winner books. Having just watched the awards on the TV recently for the recent winner, I am always amazed at just what books are nominated.
Anyway, I have a few of these books on my overwhelming to be read mountain; and will send possibly send them off.

Walkies!
We've just taken Monty, our beautiful Border Terrier into town for a walk. He is not very good with other dogs, so we usually take him to the Heath at Haldon where there are not many people or dogs, but thought we'd try something different today. He was so good, and to celebrate I released a book for Book Crossing for World Space Week. Now, Monty and I are both shattered!
Current mood: happy.
