Well, you did, obviously. Thanks for letting us know.

Book Lovers Day harnesses all the joy bibliophiles feel about books into one large celebration. A special day for all those passionate about reading, this day encourages you to find your favourite reading spot and a good book, and read the day away! (If only. Gotta take a cat to the vet in a few hours. Not my favourite reading spot, but I will take a book to read in the waiting room.)

Every year this day is celebrated on August 9th and is quite popular all over the world. The history of the creator and the creation of the national book lover's day are not documented.

I just finished my Ann Cleeves book. I really enjoy her writing and hope to someday have read them all. I don't do any rereading, though. Way too many on my 'to be read' list.
