Elisa,
I would like to know how you find the time to read and share your thoughts. :)

Have you finished "Comfort & Joy"? If so, what did you think of it!

Keep up the great work!

I bow to your ultimate BW-ness...

I am just a rank amateur comparatively speaking... Plus there's something vaguely sad about the fact that you belong to BWA while I belong to Book Sluts Anonymous, indicating, I fear, rather a lack of discernment and compensation on my part... Alas. Still... I stand in awe of how you keep track.

Love all your posts, and rely on them.

Good lord, this looks serious! Have you considered getting help for your condition. *grins* When I grow up I want to be just like Elisa.

Keep up the good work gal, and keep those pages turning!

Astounding collection! I'm just curios about one thing, though. What do you mean by "most old books"? Surely you are not saying that in your huge collection, none of the books were published befor 1978? That would mean you do not own any classic literature!

Oh, Johanna Lindsey. How many of started on her all those years ago. I love her
