Nicole R (drnicoler) | 8088 comments Wanna earn 3 participation points to use in the upcoming book auction? Or just to hoard for later?

By 3:00 PM EST on Wednesday, August 10th:

Post a haiku (or other short poem) about a book you are currently reading/completed for the entertainment tag! Be sure to tell us the name of the awesome book.

Everyone who posts by the deadline earns the points!
