My Bookshelf

In December I bought myself a Kindle.  After I got over the shock and disappointment that the Harry Potter series isn’t available, I quickly filled it with the free classics and have bought several books.  But I still have this bookshelf of books that I’m looking forward to reading.  It’s taking me a little longer to get around to them than I would like, but I am very excited to dive into them.  All have been recommended by others to me, and I will be sure to pass along my thoughts.  Right now, I’m still reading On Writing
by Stephen King- it’s part memoir, part “how-to-write” book.  I’m also reading Tranquilista: Mastering the Art of Enlightened Work and Mindful Play,
 Men Are Like Waffles–Women Are Like Spaghetti: Understanding and Delighting in Your Differences
(more about this in another post), The Power of a Praying® Wife Deluxe Edition,
 and Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix (Book 5). It’s a bit much, I know.  I normally don’t like to read more than one book at a time, but this time, well, I got a bit carried away.  Trying to cross them off my list one by one now.  The Kindle’s Text-to-Speech feature is quite nice for car-time reading, even if it sounds like a See-n-Say is reading to me.
