    FAVE READS

    Addictions

    I have an addiction to Amazon.com, specifically for books. I will buy the used / new books and save a bundle, the shipping is cheap, but sometimes takes a week or longer and I usually have forgotten that I bought the book by the time it arrives. When it arrives, it's like a gift!

    For example, my to-be-read pile is extensive:
    Team of Rivals: The Political Genius of Abraham Lincoln - Doris Kearns Goodwin
    Suite Francaise - Irene Nemirovsky
    March - Geraldine Brooks
    American Theocracy - Kevin Phillips
    Blindness - Jose Saramago
    The Hero's Walk - Anita Rau Badami
    Cotton - Christopher Wilson
    A Year and a Day - Leslie Pietrzyk
    Little Children - Tom Perotta
    Everything is Illuminated - Jonathon Safran Foer
    Never Let Me Go - Kazuo Ishiguro
    Atonement - Ian McEwan

    So many books, only one life. Where does one begin?
