Miscellaneous comments:
*Trying to compose myself after finishing The Graveyard Book. It was wonderful beyond words, but left me just bawling like a baby.
*Should confess that I've turned the TV on, sans sound, because I can't bear to not know how Penn State is doing. Well, if things don't turn around soon, I may just be able to turn it off. :(
*My daughter is utterly blowing me away in the amount she's getting read. Not fair! Yes, that was said in an incredibly whiny, petulant voice.

Good job!
Sigh, the ending made me cry too. Congrats on finishing, dear Debi, and don't worry about numbers! You're having run, right?
Ya--my Aggies lost, so I know the feeling.
Congrats on finishing the book! I'll definitely have to check it out after hearing your reaction...
And man you've been doing a lot of reading!!!
Keep it up! It's getting close to the halfway point.
The ending choked me up too...it was such a great book. You're doing awesome Debi! I however am going to take a nap so I don't get too cranky :p
Congrats on finishing the book. Your snack list is making me hungry, especially the soft pretzels and the m&m cookie! The mug of hot tea sounds like the perfect way to wash it all down.
Congrats on finishing :)I can't wait to read it! Ahhh...I need more hours...
I am hoping to find time for The GRaveyard Book later if I manage to stay awake. If not I will read it before the end of the month. I hope you enjoyed Dracula just as much.
Waaaaaaah ... I really need to try and track it down here (NZ). Otherwise, keep it up; sounds like you're both doing great! :)
I have only read one Neil Gaiman book. I really should read more! In fact, I might just add this one to my library queue!
Keep up the good work.
