2009 Review Recap

Hard to believe that I only started my blog back in August of this year after looking at my final review list recap. I can't believe that I have read and reviewed 113 books since then. That averages to about 22 books a month. Not too shabby considering with the holidays, sickness, and birthdays also arrived at the same time to slow me down.

I have signed up for the 100+ Reading Challenge, but I know that this year I will pass up the 100 mark. I am so excited to be sharing my reviews with you. I know I don't go into to much detail with my reviews. I generally just post the synopsis, and give you just my thoughts and feelings of the book I review. I figure that you don't want spoilers, and just want to know how a book makes you feel when you read it. If you want more details, that is what the synopsis is for right??

There are also going to be changes coming to my blog this year. Not only will Spread The Love Sunday continue, but I have had good remarks about WTF?! Friday and will continue to feature that as well. I will be hosting alot more contests this year. Be on the lookout for a weekly giveaway. I want to thank each and everyone of you for making this blog successful and I hope to continue to make all of you happy!

So without further rambling from me, here is my 2009 Review Recap with ratings:

Hi Amy,

You have had a busy year, girl!

It took me a minute to figure out what DNF meant:) Did you get your hubby to read any of these? LOL My hubby won't even read the ones I write! The rat!

Take care and have a HAPPY NEW YEAR. I forgot the post office is closed tomorrow so I'll get Wicked Desire out to you early next week. Take care!
