Another month down, and a suprising number of books read! The Read-a-thon helped, but then I took a week-long reading break. 🙂 I’ve got one more book review to go up for October, of Alvin Ho: Allergic to Girls, School, and Other Scary Things, but that I probably won’t do until Tuesday, because school is indeed scary and all this homework I have is burying me. -sigh-

Congrats on a great month of reading! I'm going to look up that Pfeffer book – was that for RIP?
I didn't count either of Pfeffer's books (the first is Life As We Knew It) for the RIP challenge, but I bet they would count — very creepy and chilling.
You sure did good! I enjoyed reading for RIP IV too!
Sunday Salon: October Wrap Up
RIP IV Wrap-up
I am impressed! I pat myself on the back if I have time to read more than one book in a semester. I didn't realize there were book-reading challenges out there til I started reading your blog, will have to check some out when my free time clears up!
Haha, yeah, I read rather a lot. It's part of why I decided to do the librarian thing. 🙂
