Wowsers. I'm floored by the sheer amount of books you read! I used to think I read really fast until I started book blogging! lol
ReplyDeleteholy smokes, i agree with jamie. you read soo many books! i'm so impressed, looks like a great october, and here's to a fab november :D
ReplyDeletewow! HOW do you ever find time to read THAT many books. I average about 3 or max 4 a month. Unless I read really short ones. That's super impressive!
ReplyDeleteGreat reading this month! I love BFG and Ivy and Bean; very fun
ReplyDeleteWow - great job on the reading! Tons of great ones :)
ReplyDeleteThat is an impressive number of books although I remember that you did a lot of reading during the readathon so I'm not surprised.
ReplyDeleteWhat a lot of reading this month -- looking forward to your reviews!!
ReplyDeleteYou had a fantastic month!

I am ridiculously impressed that you read 31 books in one month. I'm excited to see all those reviews!
ReplyDeleteGreat month! Good luck on the reviews. :)
ReplyDeleteWow that's a lot of books read! Like everyone else I am super impressed you manage to get through that many books in one month! (What's your secret? :D)
ReplyDeleteYou read lots of books this month that I've been meaning to read as well - you're in IL, right? Lots of Bluestems on your list! I had a similar ratio of books read to blogged last month - it's hard to write reviews when you just want to keep reading. :)
