I'm surprised 33 lasted this long. Nice little set of books!

Agreed

It was on my list.  But 24 was third on my list where 33 was not first or second. ;)

Same here! You can’t beat some good readers! Certain stories and writers continue to surprise me. I can’t help but think of how our language today has been fostered by the comics we’ve read. 

Reading is beautiful however you do it!!!

I have readers on my coffee table, randomly mini-me picks em up and starts reading through them.  But then I can't keep enough reading material for that boy.  Bought 8 new books in 1 week for him just recently.  He has read them all already.

That’s a beautiful thing. I was never a big reader growing up, and reading Batman graphic novels in the library started me on reading again. To this day, if my son picks up a comic book (and any book for that matter) and wants me to read it, I am of course compelled to do so.

The power of books compels you!

I never know when a prize will go.  Sure there are consensus high picks that'll never last beyond the first couple picks, but after that what goes when depends greatly on the tastes of who's picking.  One man's #2 pick may not be in the top 10 of 20 other guys.  That's why I appreciate all the prizes and can't thank you guys enough for your donations.
