Dear Great Pumpkin,
I am looking forward to your arrival on Halloween night. I hope you will bring me lots of comics. Everyone tells me you are a fake, but I believe in you.
Sincerely, Eric Nolen-Weathington
PS – if you really are a fake, don’t tell me. I don’t want to know.
The Rules
Log everything you've read this year. Just edit your existing post or you (and we) will get confused trying to keep up. At the end of each month, I'll start a new thread and you can pick a "winner" from your favorite books. You can focus on just trades, or just write about the good stuff you've read.
