Damn, I thought I did good reading 55 books. How the hell did you find time to read that many books?! o_O

[cornerofmadness.livejournal.com]

all the men in my area have either no teeth, rub snuff or dropped out of school in 10th grade or all of the above so I have no social life.

if it helps only 76 were books and the rest were graphic novels

[sp23.livejournal.com]

dude, I hear you. I have no social life either.

I guess I can use the excuse that I read nothing between January and May. This year I'll use the excuse that I just downloaded Les Miserables so I'll probably spend a couple months reading that. LOL

[cornerofmadness.livejournal.com]

isn't it just sad?

hahaha that is a weighty one

[rain-oubliette.livejournal.com]

I saw on Facebook one of those precaptioned pictures... it said that you can consider yourself well read if you read 4 or 5 books a year. I nearly wet myself laughing. I don't read as much as you, but I do at least 20-30. I mean, really? 4 or 5??

[cornerofmadness.livejournal.com]

Snort. I read that in a month

[a2zmom.livejournal.com]

You read that many and you wrote a ton? I am such a slacker.

[cornerofmadness.livejournal.com]

hahaha yes well you have a husband and kids that take up some time so not too much of a slacker
