The Monkey King's Used Primate Emporium and Book Reviews

End of the Month Review: March, 2005

Jeez, I was getting all set to write the next review and then I see that it�s actually time for the month wrap-up. Ok, fine.

• Book of the month: Eric Idle, with The Greedy Bastard Diary, despite all the bad things I can associate with it.

• Worst book of the month: Marion Elizabeth Rodgers (editor), with The Impossible H.L. Mencken, which wasn�t all that horrible. It was just way too long and had too many pieces that were repetitive. And the fact that I�m apologizing for putting it on the worst list means that for once, everything I read for this month wasn�t all that bad. Weird.

And speaking of what I read, for this month I...

• Read 11 books.
  
• Paid $36.23 for the books that I read this month.
  
• Bought six more.

So for the year, I...

• Read 36 books
  
• Spent $150.58 on books that I read this year.

I�m way too far behind and my bookkeeping is shoddy at best, so I can�t give you an accurate account for how many I had left at that time. As of today, I have 24 more to go. That would be exciting, except I can�t tell you how many more I have at work waiting for me to buy.

I think, however, that it�s more than 24.
