What a year

I don't know if it was the economy, my health, or just the blog itself (I can't get with the term 'blog'), but I haven't kept our site up well this year, and yet we had great meetings and inspired discussions. Not only of the official books of the month, either - we have talked about many other books informally. It's extremely rewarding, as always, to take part in this group, so THANKS from me to all of you. My New Year's Resolution? Mo better blog . . .
