I have such a freaking addictive personality. Now that I've restarted reading the Dragonlance books, I MUST READ THEM ALL. Even the 50 or so that have been published since I stopped collecting them. Faugh. At least I don't plan on buying all of those... just borrowing them from the library or something.

But why do I even have this urge? The series is total cheese! Most of the books are crap! I won't gain any respect for reading the entire series; I might even lose it from a few people!

I do this obsessive thing... Before the Dragonlance revival it was Wicked, and it's been Harry Potter, Lord of the Rings, Joss Whedon shows, Dashboard Confessional, A Song of Ice and Fire, Radiohead, MST3k - books, movies, TV, music, you name it. I get a glimmer of like for something and I dive head-first into the sea of fandom. I even collected the original Pokemon cartoon on tape for a while (I still have a few taking up space in boxes - should do something about them.)

It all started with the Babysitter's Club. I blame Ann Martin!!

AAh, Babysitter's Club. I wonder if they ever got out of 8th grade?

Well, a short Google brings me to Ann Martin's page and the Complete Babysitter's Club book checklist (http://www.scholastic.com/annmartin/bsc/babysitters.pdf), which includes the BSC Friends Forever Super Special 2: Graduation Day. That indicates they either took WAY too long to graduate 8th grade, or they were followed through high school. :)

Um, wow. The last BSC book to come out is called The Fire at Mary Anne's House. Maybe they all died a fiery death! Nah, probably can't expect that.

Whoa... I was wrong!

This is why it is with mixed emotions I made the decision to write the final book in the BSC series, Graduation Day. As you can probably tell by the title, the girls are going to graduate from the eighth grade (after many years!).
