i guess if i read em all in a year, it would be pretty good, after a short non reading period after high school my appetite for books has steadily increased. i find it helpful to have a stack of books ready to go, so i don't have to look for one when i finish a book and am hungry for the next one.

i will definetly make a post with table information for wondercon before it happens, our books will be for sale! and i will be sitting there drawing
