I wrapped up part 3 with 180 points out of 250. Not bad, I think that was better than I did in part 2.

Heather, I'm interested to hear what you think of the Karen Carpenter book. I always liked the Carpenters' music, and Karen struck me as somewhat naive and tragic.
ReplyDeleteGood luck on your challenge!
I haven't done any reading challenges, but this is one I could probably do pretty well on. Maybe next year when my life isn't quite so chaotic.
