Finished David Gelernter's Drawing Life: Surviving the Unabomber and America Lite, James Angelos's The Full Catastrophe, and am just into the first couple hundred pages of Burrow and Wallace's Gotham: A History of New York City to 1898
I've purchased over 300 books from this service, never had this happen before. For how relatively little books cost vs the value they deliver, I get no real satisfaction from a freebie. I do hope that the author gets his sheckel. Once authors give up, the only books we'll get will be written by committee. That is a category 7 catastrophe.
That's an awesome book, though. You should definitely read it.
I just started The Bridge of San Luis Rey. Interesting so far.
I don't understand why WIS want to read e-books? Since most of you dislike quartz i tought yall would prefer paper books?
Oh, I 100% absolutely prefer paper books. But on a practicality level, an e-reader just wins for me. Thousands of books in one little device that barely takes up room in my bag. My bookshelves are full of law textbooks, nice for the fiction to fit anywhere.

That's it for me exactly. I love paper books, as objects as well as ways of holding words, but they just take up too much room.
2nd page of the prologue - I guess the author is a WIS! Attachment 31464
Finished in 2 days/sittings - a record for me. Partly because it's only 300 pages of not small print, partly because it's insanely easy reading and partly because it's bond and I knew I'd enjoy it, which I did.
