I don't have the time to sit down and read much these days, and with the cateracts in both eyes it gets uncomfortable. Several years ago I discovered Books On Tape and developed a pretty expensive habit after a while. I wore out the tape decks in 2 cars. There was a tape rental place close to the house and they had a quarterly membership program. I think companies like Audible and the Ipod put them out of business. So now I run around listning to a book on my iPhone all the time. I think I have more than 100 books in my librairy. I get onto one author or another that I like and go through their entire list. I am currently coming to the end of The Dresden Files series by Jim Butcher, its about the adventures of Harry Dresden, a practicing Wizard in chicago. Pretty well written. I have worked my through all of Steven King, John Sandford, James Lee Burke, most of Anne Rice, most of Dean Koontz. Just got a notification from Audible, they finally got all of the Travis McGee series from John D Macdonald and am looking forward to all 21 of them.
