Arriving Somewhere

17 books read this year, my best since I started keeping track and read 20 in 2004! I also completed the MSLS degree at The Catholic University of America in December, and promptly read five books for fun before the year was finished. I guess you could say that I finished strong!

2007

Five Stars
One five star book this year, The Once and Future King by T.H. White. I enjoyed this tale of King Arthur and his knights immensely. The tragedy of Arthur as related by T.H. White is full of emotion, humor, philosophy and incredible writing. I’m sure I’ll be reading this novel again soon.
