I have lots to tell you about.
I've been running a poll this week: How many books did you read in 2008?
There are 6 days to go so you can still participate.
Here are the results so far.

ReplyDeleteI have The 19th Wife sitting in my TBR pile, just waiting to be read.
ReplyDeleteI love Agatha Christie so I'm off to check out the carnival. Thanks for the info!
ReplyDeleteInteresting Sunday Review. Its been a while since I have done any Sunday Salons myself, I seem to not have the time these days to do all the blogging I would like!
ReplyDeleteWhat can you do if you visit my blog?
ReplyDeleteI came to tell you I had awarded your blog. Please pick up your award in my place.
I voted in your poll! :) That's a lot of postings in one week-I'm impresed!
ReplyDeleteThanks for visiting folks.
ReplyDeleteI probably post far too often Eva. Can't help myself it seems.
my Sunday Salon is a bit formulaic Louise- it is really just a summary of what I have been doing in the week
Thanks for the award Dorte
Scrap Girl, it is so long since I touched the 19th wife I may have to start again! I'm about half way through.
Hope you enjoy the Agatha Christie Carnival Samantha
