I hope the challenge is going well for everyone!
Lily, thanks for linking! I realized that I haven’t included links to any of my reviews. I guess I need to post a reminder…
Here’s my review of Fictions by Jorge Luis Borges
Here’s my review of Animal Farm by George Orwell
Oops … I was planning to read #9 Chronicle of a Death Foretold for the 1Q09 challenge, but I didn’t realize that my current reading #34 The Bluest Eye is also a Martel-Harper book. My review is here. So I’m technically finished for 1Q09, but I’ll try to get to Chronicle as well.

Lily, I’m hosting the Martel-Harper Challenge again next quarter — so you can add it to April’s reading if you don’t get to it in March!
I finally read The Uncommon Reader yesterday. Here is the link to my thoughts on the book. Thanks for hosting the challenge.

Got to it in March. 🙂

Here is my review of Fictions by Jorge Luis Borges. Hopefully I’ll get to my second book in the next 10 days . . . although it’s looking unlikely. 😛
