I have officially surpassed all my previous reading years and have read more books in five months than I've ever been able to accomplish in a year. (My previous record was 44 books/year.) This is absolute madness and I'm loving it.

So, the library ban didn't go half as well as I'd hoped. Since I read 2/3 of the Under the Never Sky trilogy on loan and then some since my holds came in. But whatever. I didn't really think it'd work out that well for me. I have no willpower when faced with the library.
Still, I'm going to continue to try to make my bookshelf reading a priority. Especially considering I just bought 5 more books from BookOutlet and then a few more at my library's discard book sale. I'm actually running out of room on the shelf again, ack!
Also, this month I finally took the plunge into the world of audiobooks. I really enjoyed the experience despite lukewarm feelings towards the book itself. I'll probably be making a separate post in that soon too! For now, I'm going to try to get to two more from SYNC this month. We'll see!
