read 50 books in 2007

A memoir about the life of a young man in the concentration camps. Absolutely poignant work; I couldn’t put this book down.

I love Donald Trump. This book was interesting…part good common business sense, part Donald bragging on himself (which, obviously, he can do).

another quick read….good book.

This was a quick read…such a hilarious book!

by Dr. Andrew Weil. This is a great read. Dr. Weil comes from an interesting background – Harvard-trained doctor who also studied herbal medicine with the shamans in South America. He is the best of both worlds and his focus is on preventing long-term disease and maintaining a healthy immune system. He’s awesome!

2. The Life of Pi. Good stuff.

I joined booksfree.com today. I am very excited because this club has some great book titles. The best part is…I get to keep the books as long as I WANT. I figure I can read a book every two weeks which works out to be a little over 100 books a year.

And the best part for me – no late fees! I am horrible about returning books on time. This way, I leave the books in the mailbox for the postman and voila! a new book appears.

We are so spoiled it’s ridiculous! I love it. :)

so I discovered this very cool site that is similar to Netflix. Different membership levels are offered. This seems like an excellent idea for me because I don’t like to collect “things,” such as DVDs and books. Don’t get me wrong…I do have these things in my home. I just prefer not to have copies of things that aren’t either a reference material or something I will ever want to read or watch again.

What will they think of next?

I am currently reading a book called Gifted Hands. It’s a quick easy read…a fascinating story about the first neurosurgeon to separate twins joined at the head (sharing a major blood vessel). His name is Ben Carson. Fascinating story about his life.
