Alright, so the grand total of books read for 2008 is............. *drum roll please* .................. 28! Ok ok, so it's not the 50 book goal, but it's not bad right? I had a 56% success rate. :p
I loved pretty much everything I read except the first one (it definitely wasn't what I remembered from my teenhood) and Nurk (although I think it's just because I expected more...I was a bit dissappointed although it's a cute book). I will definitely be looking for more by several of these authors!

What are you proud for accomplishing in 2008? Anything you wanted to accomplish that didn't quite happen?

I'm proud of finally landing an internship, going across the county for three months to complete it, and sticking it out even though I missed my husband terribly and he had to have an emergency appendectomy. I wish I had landed a zookeeping job but I did get another internship for next year. I also would have liked to get more art done and do more with the house. There's always 2009 right?
