    Audiobooks

    I've been looking into that, too. I don't think our system is quite as "together " as yours, this is Louisiana, after all :rolleyes:. But, my local librarians are quite helpful and could probably get me whatever I want, given enough time, and the public library near the uni has many more...

    Audiobooks

    I got an mp3 player for Christmas, so between that and the car's CD player, should be set. The only issue is finding affordable (free) audiobooks. My local rural library doesn't have much of a selection, so I may have to get a reciprocal borrower card from the public library near the...

    Audiobooks

    Thank you for the timely thread!! My solo commute is 45 minutes to an hour each way, and I've been looking for something to pass the time. I decided to try audiobooks. I don't know if I'll like it, but I'm willing to give it a shot. I've heard that the reader makes all the difference...

    best book to movie adaptation

    I think most of us don't mind a director's own spin, creative license, whatever you want to call it. What I dislike is when a movie is purported to be based on a book, yet the movie only has a few things in common with the book, like with I am Legend where the only things linking the movie and...

    Which Was the Last Book You Read in One Sitting?

    In one day, several, though rarely. I have four kids at home so quiet reading time comes in fits and spurts and quite often late at night. In one sitting, the last time was fifteen years ago. It was the Pelican Brief by John Grisham and I read it sitting in my next dorm neighbor's room my...

    The Seven Types of Bookstore Customers

    I'm an Independent with Browser/Grazer/Seeker tendencies. I am not a camper, but, without any help, I can spend hours browsing and grazing, if I don't have one particular book on my agenda.

    What is your favorite non-fiction genre?

    I like biographies, nature and science, with a good smattering of real, extreme, adventures thrown in there. I have no one favorite, I am way too eclectic of a reader to have just one.

    Tell me what you read and I'll tell you who you are

    To see who I am by my books, you'd first have to weed out all of my hubby's religious books. The you'd see that I have a wide variety of interests. And my small collection of books doesn't really do me justice since I use libraries most of the time and so don't have a lot of what I've read...
