bumping question to the top...

I'm not a mod, but I definitely don't read them in the month they are released. I get most of my books from the library, and so sometimes the wait list for a new book is really huge. I just treat it like any year-long challenge - I try and get it done by the end of the year. And honestly, sometimes the december books don't happen until early January.
