Wow ... what a horrible reading month for me! I've been exceptionally busy, so I've been experimenting with audios and ebooks .... which has been nice but that in itself for me has been a learning experience
Audio's, I found I can listen to at work if I'm doing straight no brain data entry ... (which I have alot of right now as we had a system crash with a corrupt backup, argh) ... only I do still miss quite abit of the story ... so I find I like to listen to them twice ... which is not a hardship as I've chosen some really great audios (or I hope!)
eBooks have been a neat experience .... I can read them on my laptop at home between surfing or during commercials ..... or I can read them on my Palm LifeDrive in bed after the lights are out, or in the line at the bank or post office .... and I've built up a nice little eBook tbr, so now I think I'm set for some serious ebook reading!
I've started a six book SSE series, so I'm pretty committed to reading that through ... those are in print .... I've started the next In Death audio, and plan on doing one more In Death before switching to something else on the audios .... and I have a few nice little spicey reads on the Palm LifeDrive that I think I'm going to enjoy very much, most have cowboys in them! :D

Well done!
You Quiet Canadians are doing a great job! What's the national average for number of books read? Two? Three? Give yourselves a huge pat on the back.
