And that Mother Reader shared her busy birthday weekend with us to make it all happen!<BR/><BR/>And I'm telling you - my eyes are toast even today -- I don't know how Biblio File managed that feat of ocular superiority! And Little Willow's reading speed really amped up my competitive spirit this year, too! <BR/><BR/>Thanks MR for another great birthday party! <BR/><BR/>ZG @ Midwestern LodestarZGhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03711225032358439315noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21301089.post-64393997242797288972008-06-10T01:13:00.000-04:002008-06-10T01:13:00.000-04:00Congrats everyone!

It must have taken you a long time to check everyone's stats - I looked at just some of the wrap up posts today and I know how long that took, and I wasn't even trying to compile the stats!<BR/><BR/>And I made the 20 hour club. Wheeeeeeeee! I've never belonged to a club before!<BR/><BR/>This was fun, and I'm glad I could participate again this year.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16813084292265103896noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21301089.post-37051045882068385132008-06-09T17:53:00.000-04:002008-06-09T17:53:00.000-04:00Wow!I'll bet all the winners got a lot of gold sta...Wow!<BR/><BR/>I'll bet all the winners got a lot of gold stars when they were kids participating in their library's summer reading programs.Lisa Yeehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14996451632755795135noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21301089.post-20961690183421914832008-06-09T17:52:00.000-04:002008-06-09T17:52:00.000-04:00Congrats to the winners!

Well, a holiday for me. And when I read on a theme, the way I did the first and third years, it becomes very...ah...profound...or something.Gail Gauthierhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01673131515563387968noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21301089.post-55655203441086224512008-06-09T15:36:00.000-04:002008-06-09T15:36:00.000-04:00This is amazing, Pam!

Think of all the reading that was accomplished, and all the great books that are going to get attention, because of your inspiration/ organization/ cheer-leading. It boggles the mind.

It makes me want to do a pledge for a worthy cause next year - get people to donate $ per number of books or per number of pages or a flat donation...<BR/><BR/>Does anyone want to do a general rehashing, a comparison of books read? I noticed that we had some cool overlapping. For example, at least three of us read The Fold, a bunch of people read a bunch of books by Meg Cabot, and only a few books were not-so-recent releases.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
