Samantha I'm not sure what went wrong, GR originally ate the list I had. I will be getting it fixed this evening when I'm back at the computer. If you'd like to search before then feel free to type the name of the list and you can search it that way but I will have it up and fixed this evening. Paris has already started on it too and it'll be fixed quick :)

i am in for sane also, quick question. do we got month to month or can i pick different months to do first or a little bit of everyone?
Month to month. If there's a book you'd like to read and it's not on a list but fits the category you can add the book to the listopia though.
Well, as a 35 year veteran (and retired) high school teacher and administrator, my sanity was lost sooooo long ago that this seems to be a great challenge for me!I've lost my ever loving listopia mind!
