About meInternal Audit manager by day, part-time evening law school student on sabbatical hoping to get the money to finish... Oh, yeah, and I love books...;-)

I joined the 50 Book Challenge for 2008. I didn't quite make it to 50, but you can see how far I got if you like.

I'm taking up the 50 Book Challenge again for 2009 - follow my reading list here.

About my libraryDue to recent "lifestyle changes", I'm committed to divesting my library as I read books (or in some cases identifying those books I really don't intend to read). As I break up with my bibilophilia, Phoenix Public Library will be receiving the donated books, with the exception of any ARCs I'm finished with - check out my blog for chances to win one of my ARCs!
