I love to read. I love books.

And I really love my book club. It is a lovely group of kind, good, interesting women. And I asked a brainstorming question. I was looking for a set of names for an upcoming series of fonts. I could barely write down the names fast enough. Such a smart group.

And we are in the process of moving to Madison and I will truly miss this wonderful group of women. We all fit so well together.

We just put our list of books together for 2008. And I thought I'd share it all of you.
