Since you asked

with her killer graces
and her secret places
that no boy can fill
with her hands on her hips
oh, and that smile on her lips
because she knows that it kills me
with her soft french cream
standing in that doorway
like a dream
I wish she'd just leave me alone
but french cream won't soften
them boots and french kisses
will not break that heart of stone
with her long hair falling
and her eyes that shine
like the midnight sun
she's the one
that thunder in your heart at night
when you're kneeling in the dark
it says
you're never gonna leave her
but there's this angel in her eyes
that tells such desperate lies
and all you wanna do is believe her
and tonight you'll try
just one more time
to leave it all behind
and to break on through
oh, she can take you
but if she wants to break you
she's gonna find out
that ain't so easy to do
and no matter where
you sleep tonight
or how far you run
she's the one
with just one kiss
she'll fill these long summer nights
with her tenderness
that secret pact you made
back when her love could save you
from the bitterness
she's the one

I just spent the better part of an hour reading the book list from years past, mostly late 2006 and into 2007. The literature year turns over on July 17, and I had pretty well decided to let the thing finally, quietly die this time.

But I now think I’d be doing future me a real disservice if I did. I hate the work it takes but I love the result. And I’ve done some excellent writing within the confines of those little book reviews.

What I want to know is, does/did ANYONE read the book list except me?Now is the time to unlurk and drop me an email, IM, or Twitter message if you even KNEW I’d been keeping track of every book I read since July 17, 1996.

When I was twenty-two.

…because I can migrate it from slithytoves to another WordPress blog, and continue it, if it has an audience of even one person besides me.
