Let's share book ideas!

I'm currently reading Huckleberry Finn. Haven't read it since I was a kid and, no surprise, it's a lot more complex than I remembered :). And a good traveling book!

Also highly recommended, from my just-finished pile, Motoring with Mohammed. It's nothing about war -- it's a travelogue from the 80s, about Yemen. Beautifully written.

I read about 2 books/week on my Nook. Currently reading all the different John Sandford books (Prey series, Flowers series, etc).

I use the Orange County (Fl) e-Book library. $125/year if you don't live in the county, if I remember correctly.

WEB Griffin, just finished the Corps series and now reading the Brotherhood of War series. Can't put them down. Cannot wait until we go camping in April so that I can sit in my chair outside with a fire and read.
