What’s On Your Nightstand? : Jan. 2011

Joining in with the monthly listing of what reading material I have next to the bed, on the computer, or scattered through out the house:

Borrowed from a friend:

In the Presence of My Enemies by Gracia Burnham with Dean Merrill

Bought at library sale:

The Lady and the Panda (The True Adventures of the Fist American Explorer to Bring Back China’s Most Exotic Animal) by Vicki Constantine Croke

Bought not too long ago at local bookstore:

The Backyard Homestead Edited by Carleen Madigan

Bought long ago when I worked at a bookstore:

Love Sonnets by Elizabeth Barrett Browning

E-books for the computer:

Radical (Taking Back Your Faith From the American Dream) by David Platt

The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo by Stieg Larsson

The Hunger Games by Suzanne Collins

I’m reading these e-books with the Barnes and Noble Nook app on my laptop. This will be my first attempt to read a novel off of the computer screen and already I suspect I don’t like it. I want to be able to snuggle down in the covers of my bed or sit next to the warm wood stove. Hopefully once I get into the story, I won’t mind sitting at the computer so much to turn “pages.” I’ll let you know how it goes.

  1. I use the Nook app on my iTouch for my e-reader. I do enjoy it as it is always with me (when I am waiting for a child to finish basketball practice). It is also nice at night as I don’t have to have the light on in the room to read. Once you get used to the small screen it is fine. There is something to be said about a hold in the hand book, though.
