Reading addict

will write for chocolate

So 'fess up...how many of you out there identify with the cartoon above?

I go a bit nuts if I don't have something to read, wherever I am. I usually carry a magazine or paperback with me, but if I've been so negligent as to forget Real reading material, I'll grab whatever I can get: advertising flyers, phone books...yes, even milk cartons and cereal boxes.

I am SO lusting after The Kindle right now, but I think I'm going to wait until the next iteration so that some of the bugs have been ironed out.

Speaking of reading, my recent reads:

- The entire Sandman series by Neil Gaiman. I read this ages ago but it was time for a re-read, particularly since we now own the big hardcover mega-compilations.

- East by Edith Pattou. LOVED this book and would recommend it for any young person who enjoys fantasy.

- A Gathering Of Gargoyles (Vol. 2) and The Pearl Of The Soul Of The World (Vol 3) of the Darkangel trilogy by Meredith Ann Pierce.
