I just finished No. 45. Which makes a new record for me. About three years ago I read 44 books in a year. :p
I just read "Top Secret Twenty One" by Janet Evanovich.
It's the next of the Stephanie Plum books. One more to get done before the new one is released next month. :)
No giraffes this time. Instead a pack of feral chihuahua. lol...
The main story line this time has Stephanie helping Ranger track down a Russian assassin from his past.
And she is also trying to track down a bond jumper who is a local car dealer who's poker partners all seem to be dying.

I read all of her books, but especially enjoy the Stephanie Plum series. They made a movie of one of her books with Katherine Heigl as Stephanie and Sherrie Shepard as LuLa. It flopped. It's my opinion Stephanie should be played by Sandra Bullock. That's how I picture her. :)

When I first started reading her books people told me about the movie. Unfortunately I can't stand Heigl, so I won't watch it. :o

How could Heigl be Plum, that does not sound like an accurate fit? Hmmm.

I used to average a book every month for awhile until... well, James, he became more James-y. (He also makes it harder to read during therapy session time when he's the one out in the lobby, ROFL. :P)

Was it determination to get resting this year?  I've managed 38 so far, but that's also with talking books.
