My daughter is getting married in July and I have two vacation trips to mess up my reading but I’ll be spending a lot of time in the car with nothing to do but read!

I predicted I'd managge 13 and so far I have done 11 and a half, okay 2 have been Graphic novels and 2 have been incredibly short but I'm doing well, likely to exceed my target as there is a week to go and its the summer holidays. I've been rubbish at sticking to the list I set myself though. How's everyone else doing? katrinas last blog post..My Thoughts: The Secrets We Keep by Mary Alice Monroe
