Oh, Dearest Mother, Sweetest Virgin of Altagracia, our Patroness. You are our Advocate and to you we recommend our needs. You are our Teacher and like disciples we come to learn from the example of your holy life. You are our Mother, and like children, we come to offer you all of the love of our hearts. Receive, dearest Mother, our offerings and listen attentively to our supplications. Amen.

Some of y'all know about this but I just thought I'd post for those who don't. There is a VERY cool website out there called "Good Reads" which allows you to track books you've read, you're reading or you want to read. It allows you to post reviews of said books and also access to users' reviews. It's a pretty awesome site -- especially since it's free!

If you sign up, don't forget to add me Mary G as a "friend"!

Thanks, Mary, for letting us know about Good Reads. I had started on one Shelfari back in the summer but I may give this one a try too since I "know" so many of you through the boards here and enjoy getting book recommendations.

I'm fascinated! For those of you who have checked out both Good Reads and Shelfari, which do you think is better? And where are there more 4Real moms?

I haven't had time to really update my bookshelf on Goodreads the way I'd like but I plan to add to it over time. I love the whole idea! Please add me as a friend, if you like!

Happy Reading, everyone!

Jennifer -- thanks for adding me as a friend!

I love the idea of being able to post books that you WANT to read as well as those you've read. So often, y'all suggest fascinating books that I just can't get to and then I forget all about them when I do have time!

So true! I'm trying to compile a buying list for ME at the moment and I just can't remember all those great titles you have all shared
