  15. I'm looking forward to reading Shiver, too. I just have so many books waiting to be read right now! I really got behind this summer, with the kids home from school and so much going on. And I'm way, way behind on work (writing). Time to start catching up! I guess it's just the opposite for you - going back to work after being home for the summer. Enjoy your first week!!
