The category above that's audio from library instead of BookCrossing copy means I had a BC copy on my shelves but got it out of the library instead to earread it. Man, my TBR shelves must HATE me! Look how many times I read library books! Meep!

Bouncing Around the DC Area

I got another catch from three years ago!
The Three Little Pigs
(You're Such an Animal 2010 Release)


This book started out at the Book Thing in Baltimore, MD, then came home with me to Burke, VA. I released it at the National Zoo in Washington, D.C. three years and 4 months ago, and today it finally checked in from Chesapeake, VA. So great to hear from it after so long and I look forward to seeing if it can make its way out of the DC area one day!
