Same for me! Life sure does happen. Good to see you and everyone here again, too. I've been snailing through a handful of books the past year, but used to sail through so many more.

That's certainly easy to understand. I'm also up and down with my reading. Sometimes I'll read a book very, very quickly and then it can take me 2 or 3 months to finish another one, and it's not because the book isn't a good one. It's just that you're involved in doing other things. As you say, life happens. :)

Aww thanks for asking. Angel is doing great and is the funniest goofiest little dork, lol! I've bonded so strongly to this dog and can't imagine my life without him. Such a great find that rainy night in the Costco parking lot.

Welcom back LCW. Sounds like your reading list and mine have a lot in common--in terms of piles.
