Items of note in my “book world” in 2010:

• I met three authors – Ann Bancroft, Lian Dolan and Jenna Blum.  I got to spend a lot of time with Ann and Jenna and they are both remarkable women and inspiring!
• I read the three Millenium books and unexpectedly loved them all.
• I read the book that inspired the start of the Cosmo Girls.
• I listened to a few more audiobooks this year than I have in a while – although it used to be all I listened to in my car and with the death of my iPod I anticipate I’ll listen to more in 2011!
• I plowed through a lot of books during my Ferragosto vacation.
• 40 books = almost a book a week, which is very cool!
