I was typing this up before at the library, but then there was a power surge and I lost what I was typing! So I had to type up # 31 onwards. This is probably the most books I've finished in a year since I was a kid. I'd finish more books, but I have trouble sleeping. If I didn't have any trouble sleeping, I could probably finish a book a week.
