A Challenge Completed

and one not...
I finished the Fall Into Reading challenge, but I didn't finish The Book to Movie Challenge.
I was fairly close too, just dropped the ball.
I may finish them in Dec., we'll see.

Yesterday I started reading Cold Sassy Tree and that is the only book I have going at this time! I'm going to try (again) to just read what I have already purchased to read and NOT to buy any new books or get any from the library. I have hundreds here at the house just waiting for me to read them.

Well we're off to the beach for the day, and yes I'll be brining my book with me. :)
