Book Count 2011

My book count is now up to 47. With only three more books to reach my goal, I am sure I am going to make it and, maybe, even surpass it. I will confess that I listened to the CDs that came with the Jacqueline Kennedy book as opposed to reading, but I did read some of it. So, I am going to count it.
