Hi, I just discovered your blog through Bloglily's blogroll. I like yours, so I'll be back! Meantime - I've been hemming and hawing about joining so many challenges this year, since I finished only 7 and left so many undone....but I did read more books than I have managed, so now i'm thinking I might be able to try the 100 + challenge and see how far I get....thanks for the post!
Just join us, Susan ;o). After all, the reading police won't come get you if you don't reach 100. And think of all the fun you'll have trying to get there ;o).
Did I post an official welcome? If not, I am so sorry. Here it is:
