How’s your reading list shaping up for 2012?
I should ask a “bonus” question about whether you prefer to read the old-fashioned kind of book or the electronic variety, but I’ll save that for another time. This week, we’ll just focus on books you’d like to read during this year.
That’s this week’s topic! Thanks for dropping by!

I am a member of Paperbackswap.com and an active borrower from the library, so I have a constant stream of physical books coming into my home. I’ve thought of a Kindle, but I’m traditionally a late adopter when it comes to most things, and I just don’t see a need at the moment.
@TammyL Hey! A fellow Paperback Swap member! Nice to meet you!
@Cathryn (aka Strange) Wonderful! I’m TammyLuck on PBS if you want to be “friends”. Why do I feel like I’m back in elementary school when I say that?
@TammyL I’m eeyore17026 – I’ll “friend” you – though I’m not sure there’s a real advantage to doing that! 🙂

I have rediscovered reading since buying a Nook and finding out how to get books from the library without leaving home. I’ve been reading a lot of John Sandford and Sue Grafton books. All the ones I listed above are books I can’t get from the library, so It will be a slow process getting around to them. I’ll either have to buy the Nook Books or, if it’s cheaper on half.com, I may buy the actual books.
