Time to "Rendre Compte"

Definitely, we have slowed down the last two months-- must be everyone has been super busy :-) Anyway, BRIAN did go way ahead in the number of books read (5 since the last report) but RUTH wins the overall prize for the number of pages. Special acknowledgment must be made to MICAIAH, too, as he read a real big book-- 193 pages, in fact! Bravo!

Total participation-- 7 people. Total books-- 12 Total pages-- 2773

Let's see if we do better now that it is summer!

A Few Stats....

It has been exactly 2 months since we challenged you all to a reading "concours" in the Reading Room. I thought it would be great to see how we are doing. We have had GREAT participation.


A total of 32 books have been posted (many more read, I am sure, as we know there were many doubles!)
Overall-- Brian has posted the most--8 books!
The female participants-- Donna and Johanna are tied with 4 each!
The younger generation (below 20!)-- Isabelle and Micaiah are tied (3 each) but Patience is only one behind!

What kinds of books have we read? All kinds! The diversity has been exciting. We have learned about Panthers and The Summer of 1787-- these along with others were informative. We have had some "how to" books like Shopping for Time and Train Up A Child (maybe The Big Mess!).

We have also had some good Christian Living books like When Sinners Say I do and Girl Talk.
Some Just for fun books like Felicity and Trucks.
Some biographies like Granny Brand. And many doctrinal/theological books!!

The list goes on. It has been fun. Can't wait to see what you read in the next couple of months. We hope you are profiting from the challenge and that you have enjoyed your new books as well!

Micaiah gets his reward!!

Grandma has already started fulfilling her promise! Micaiah was pleasantly surprised.
