Virginie Says…
Well, I managed to finish The Catcher in the Rye last week and added 20 points to my total. My next challenge is to read a celebrity biography/autobiography and I chose Crawford: The Last Years by Carl Johnes. It’s about Joan Crawford and is excellent so far. (I’m a huge Joan fan)

For next week’s total, I have read a book outside for 20 pts (I Was Amelia Earhart) and read a book for its cover for 5 pts (American Wife)
This puts my total to 105 pts. Woohoo!
Would it be possible to read a Jodi Picoult instead of a Danielle Steel? I understand completely if you don’t want to change the rules for me. I know I won’t read a Steel book this summer, and Picoult writes the mass market type of fiction, with some romance that Steel does.
happy reading!
I don’t have a problem with that. Happy reading to you, too!
