Go to the library! Boring post, maybe... but I still love, love the library! It's a cool 72 degrees in there, there's 2 floors of books, a coffee shop, no children with me, and oh - did I mention it was 72 degrees in there?!
Today's Picks:
For the man:
For Finnegan:
He is finally reading on his own, it takes some work finding books for him that he would like and he can read by himself. The kid loves cows like you wouldn't believe, but I'm forcing him to branch out :)
I didn't go overboard today for myself, mostly because I have a lot more work to do than I have time to read about work.
One guess who this stack is for :)
When arriving home from the library, guess what was waiting at the doorstep? Ribbit, you hush! ....(she knew it was coming!)
Yes, we have crossed over to the dark side, with an e-reader! Before you groan and moan and shut the book on me... there really is a reason for this :)
Not only would hubby really get a lot of use out of it, he had a gift certificate to use! When he deploys, he can't take but a couple of books with him since they won't fit in his little locker with all his other necessities. Instead of him turning into "Illiterate Hubby" for 8 months at a time, now we can load up as many books as we want before he leaves, and there is quite an extensive list of free e-books as well.
I am a die-hard fan of the feel of a book in hand, and I don't feel comfortable unless my bookshelves are always full, but I admit I'm excited to try it, and it arrived with my first book "beamed" into it in transit, LOL! Tonight, music lessons and as soon as I get home I can't wait to try it out.
So tell me, how many of you have an e-reader? I want to know what kind, if you like it, and your first impressions after using it! I kind of feel like a traitor, but I think it will be very useful for deployments and our long car trips back home. But of course, I will always love, love the library :), of course you can get library books too on some e-readers, too... LOL
