I mostly slept through mine, but now I'm writing reviews and formatting posts. Huzzah, extra hour! (Not-so-huzzah for tomorrow, though, when I have to wake up early for work. Ugh.)

Yay for 2000 posts! (I don't have any suggestions for what it should be, though. Sorry!) Also yay for Calibre-- I'm glad it's coming in handy for you. There's lots of nifty things you can do with it besides importing/converting/tagging/etc. Dear Author has some posts on the subject: http://dearauthor.com/ebooks/setting-up-a-new-lib...

I have a VERY hard time reading a whole series straight through, so waiting or not waiting wouldn't make any difference for me because I'd still probably take a few years to read it. However! It IS nice to have the whole story ready to go if I AM struck by the need to complete the whole thing at once, sooooo. Hm.

I guess I don't really count ebooks as "real" TBR books? Their lack of physical presence means that reading one is a bonus rather than something I have to work towards (climbing Mount TBR is much easier when half of it isn't staring me in the face). I DO keep track of all my ebooks, though-- I use Calibre, which has tags and things that lets me keep mark unread books vs. read. I don't know how much of a pain it'd be for you to import all your various books into another application, but at least they'd all be in one place! Which might help?

How great that you're stretching your reading boundaries! And you have a great list of books for this month-- The Princess Bride is a particular favorite of mine.

Happy blogiversary!

The Google Reader thing is SO. ANNOYING. I've been using it since it first started (or close to that, anyway), and I haven't found a good alternative yet. Ugh.

Yeaaaaaah, I gave up on this after the first chapter, for pretty much the same reasons. As soon as she accepted the prince's offer I knew it wasn't going to go in a way that'd keep my head from exploding. UGH.

I'm hoping to go both days! It depends on if my rideshare thing works out or not. :D

I'm already behind on Alcatraz, but I liked the first episode(s) I saw! Mainly I was impressed that the main detective character was a lady, lol.

Also, about the ALA drama: I'm guessing lots of posts about it will start showing up this week, but meanwhile here's a really good one that goes over most of the issues discussed during the drama: http://www.stackedbooks.org/2012/01/librarians-bl...

Please do come to ALA in June! I'm going to be there, and I want to meet all the bloggers I can in person. :D

I feel the same! If I don't know you well enough how will I know what sort of book you'd enjoy? Plus, whenever people ask me questions that require me to remember large amounts of info, I invariably end up forgetting that info anyway. So I'm no help either way.

I suppose what I should do is just try to remember one really good book and recommend that all the time. It could work!
