Also, I forgot to mention, you can post a book that you DNF-ed along with the pages you read for it. It would count, but not for prompts, only for page points. Even the review points would count.

Libby has gone camping (or something like that I'm not very sure :D) so she won't be able to write reviews, update her progress, post or any of that GR stuff until she's back, and by then it would be November. So I am posting this book for her -

Oh man, that's sad. I review books that I don't want to be over so that I can come back and revisit those memories. Why don't you try? :)
