*As we can see, I had a run on Nalini Singh there in the beginning of the month! You need something trashy to counter-balance the depth of Dunnet, I say! I'm also reading a book of John Donne's works along with a book of Scottish Poetry, both of which aren't full read-'em-all-at once books. Same thing with a PG Wodehouse book as it is more short stories that I pick up every few days or so instead of reading straight-through. I feel as if I read more in January than is on my list, but I guess not!
