A Book Baton

2005.07.20

Kev passed me a book baton, and being one who can’t live without books, did my bit.

Number of books on the shelf

Lots. A whole wall of them, and some more lying here and there… I’ve read most, except my father’s collection of dramas.

Last book purchased

Fundamentals of Marketing - Philip Kotler and Gary Armstrong
Does that count as a “book”?
