I've realized that lately, I've been averaging from 4-10 books a month, although most of last year, I've averaged about 12. It's terrible!

So, November 2007 reads

Le Cid - Corneille
Snakehead - Anthony Horowitz
Memoirs of D'artagnan - Sandras
The Three Dumas - Maurois

I read ten books in November but the only one I liked, unfortunately, was The Society of S by Susan Hubbard
