Just started The Art of Racing in the Rain. Not a big fan of anthropomorphism but it is... pretty good so far. Before that I read 1776 which was great. I ordered more McCullough's. They should arrive tomorrow.
fresh back from the mental institution and FEELING FINE!!!!!!!!

...unless you do the ereader-type thing.

I've been coming to where I am from the get go
Find that I can groove with the beat when I let go
So put your worries on hold
Get up and groove with the rhythm in your soul

I could go on and on about how much I love my Kindle... I travel a lot, so books are a pain... plus I read every New Yorker Magazine cover-to-cover and they come every week... to stop that constant flow of paper into my house through to the recycling center is a great feeling.

Plus, I have the Kindle for Blackberry app, so I can pick up reading whatever book I'm in the middle of right where I left off on the Kindle at any time. Great for sitting on the john!!

Don't knock it 'til you try it!

I won't knock it.  However, I seem to remember hearing about an incident at a hotel that involved replacing a phone....

PIE-GUY

yeah, but the replacement phone is so much nicer than the "lost" phone... worked out just fine!

Mr Minor

A Man in Full

by Tom Wolfe

I love his detailed, almost ridiculously detailed, writing.  He goes so deep into the characters it really makes you love or hate them.

I would recommend I Am Charlotte Simmons to anyone who likes Tom Wolfe.


gah

Anyone reading or have read the new Yann Martel (Life of Pi) book, Beatrice and Virgil? Thinking about picking it up.....
