Book Club for One

Tonight on the Emmy's, Oprah quoted Groucho Marx "I find television to be very educating. Everytime somebody turns on the set, I go in the other room and read a book." I've always enjoyed reading, but like a lot people, I enjoy TV as well and I haven't really been a very devoted book-reader as of late. I love books - especially the fancy hardcover, rough page-edged ones, but never know where to store them when I'm finished. Instead, I've recently signed up for a good ol' public library card. I've discovered the "hold" feature on-line at our local library and have been more than a little over-enthusiastic about using it. At any time I seem to have 2-3 books checked out and I'm racing to get through them before the other books on my list are available. I've even asked Steve to pick up books for me when I'm out of town. Nerdy? maybe. Bookwormish? definitely. I'm reading so many books right now that I often forget which ones I have read and which I'm waiting to read. To solve this, I've decided to keep a little on-going section on my blog devoted to what I'm reading and whether or not I liked it. I'd love suggestions on good books to read - I always like to discover a new author - so let me know of any of your favorites.
