Hello everyone out there and I hope that you all had a terrific reading month for yourselves. I am known as Rosefire around the Internet and this is my new personal reading blog. I originally posted my reviews over at my daughter's blog, Emeraldfire's Bookmark but am now in the process of transferring them all over to my own blog. My daughter makes blogging look like so much fun that I thought that I would try it out for myself! :)
Anyway, I started out November with 1,039 books lying around the house and ended the month with 1,030 books unread. All the books that I acquired this month came from Paperback Swap and Bookmooch.
Let me try to break down the influx for you:

Till we Meet Again, Glow Brightly as Moonlight
It's time for me to weed my bookshelves again. Now that I get most of my books on Kindle, I really need to move more paper books. I'm sure my library would be glad to get most of them.
