So far, I've read "A Long Way Down" by Nick Hornby, and I've started on Gregory Maguire's "Confessions of an Ugly Stepsister" (I know, I know, I should've read that a long time ago - it's been on my list for ages!) And I'm also reading "Bad Girls of the Bible" a chapter at a time, for my morning devotional. All on my Kindle - SO cool...


The next one I want to get is the complete works of Mark Twain. It's like five bucks.


Then I gotta figure out how to get one of these for Ken.
