Ummmmmmm, *The 17 Indisputable Laws of Teamwork * or something like that. It’s really boring and for my class. This class just started, and I already want to throw it out the window.

I’m not sure what free read book I’m going to read next. Most of my books are at our old place, and my husband keeps forgetting to bring them back when he goes to visit. I only have a few here, none of which remotely interest me right now.

I did just finish On the Banks of Plum Creek by Laura Ingalls Wilder. Yes, it’s a children’s book. However, I’d never read one of her books before. I always read advanced books. I have the set but don’t want to read another right now.

I know that I have Little Women and David Copperfield, but I’m not sure I want to tackle longer books right now. Maybe I’ll read through the previous posts and see if anything strikes my fancy. I can check the library.
 
The Return of Depression Economics by Paul Krugman (on my new Kindle 2:thumbsup: )
 
A Clue for the Puzzle Lady by Parnell Hall. I thought someone on this forum recommended it, but I’m having a hard time remembering/finding out who.

So, many books of interest on here

For my Lenten Devotional I am reading Rick Warren’s Purpose Driven Life. I am also reading Joyce Meyer’s book called Knowing God Intimately : Being As Close To Him As You Want To Be.

I think this may be an updated edition:

Back to Basics: A Complete Guide to Traditional Skills, Third Edition by Abigail R. Gehring

I may get it too. The 2 B&N’s closest to me have it.
 
Acedia & me A Marriage, Monks, and a Writer’s Life by Kathleen Norris

Norris has enlightened me on the subject of acedia–something that permeates so many people I come in contact with. And manages to stir up a lot of anger in me!
 
How Starbucks Saved My Life. by Michael Gates Gill (on my Kindle 2 👍)
