So many interesting reads, so little time

From blog to book, petite anglaise is out. In full force! And I still yet to procure a copy, the brit version. Amazon france says it’s “bientot disponible” while amazon uk sets delivery dates. Rather quick.
Question is when can I read it? I’m still on page 75 (out of 636 pages) of Rowling’s HP and the Goblet of Fire. The dvds I finished already, but the book is more delicious. Then T told me she’s got more two if I’m done with the rest. I have no idea how thick the last two of Harry Potter’s books are, but I imagine more than a thousand pages.
Then the four books I ordered, as part of my 2008 “achievement” arrived. B said “atonement” is a good read.  Which my subconscious registered.
Considering that I only read during my train rides to work, which normally runs a full 35 minutes, butt-glued in the seat, I may actually look forward to 2009, with a blog starting “books I missed out reading in 2008″. Didn’t I say I’m that good at keeping NY resolutions?!
But next week, I’ll be Home Alone, no rereading on “three little pigs, the gingerbread man, red hen and her lazy friends or dinosaurs”, as my very own piglet will go skiing with pa and lola.
Let’s see what speed means ;-)

p.s. don’t wonder why my eyes are blood-red!
