But I still have a Christmas gift certificate for Amazon, so this will probably be one of those purchase (but my wishlist has many, many books on it, so who knows?).<BR/><BR/>I'm like you with the blurbs (or "blabs," I love that ;o)), I don't usually read them either. I also have to admit to only skimming reviews. Even those of book bloggers. I basically read until I get a sense of whether the blogger likes it or not. If they do, I usually push the book up a bit on my wishlist. If they don't, I don't take the book off my list, but it doesn't get moved up either.<BR/><BR/>Anyway, I'm glad you're enjoying the What an Animal challenge. I've easily surpassed the 6 books required, too. In fact, I'm now reading <I>Dewey: The Small-Town Library Cat Who Touched the World</I> and loving it. It is amazing the number of books that I read that have animals attached to them in some way. I never really noticed before I started the challenge ;o). <BR/><BR/>Happy reading!Kristihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13913311124505574744noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2463216142910370346.post-87139486624121464172008-10-04T12:16:00.000-05:002008-10-04T12:16:00.000-05:00I don't like to read to many blurbs either.
