For the month of March I read 29 books, 17 of which were from my TBR pile ..woot! woot! I had a blast with the Take Control Challenge and want to thank all that participated. On a personal note: Tomorrow April 8th is my twenty-fifth wedding anniversary and I just want to take a moment to thank my soul mate, hero and best friend for making everyday special. For our three beautiful, complicated children and for loving this crazy book lady! I am going to unplug for the next few days to celebrate, but don't worry I still have awesome posts to share with you. Have a wonderful week peeps!
