Books I've Read So Far This Year

[nekosensei]

1. Coraline by Neil Gaiman
2. Dead Until Dark by Charlaine Harris

3. Living Dead in Dallas by Charlaine Harris -- This is the second book in the Sookie Stackhouse series. I must say that I'm enjoying these novels, and I can't wait until True Blood comes back this summer. I'm interested in seeing how they're going to portray this.

So far, I'm making it through about one book a month, mostly because I have problems with neck pain if I spend too much time reading. If I read much more than half an hour to an hour, it gets sore, and then the pain radiates to my shoulders and back or to my head. I've gotten some pretty nasty migraines this way. It's a shame because I love to read. If I didn't have this problem, I'd probably be on book ten by now.

Hmmm...my hair is getting pretty long; it goes down to about my mid-back. This week, I'm going to try getting some of it cut off to see if that will alleviate my problem.

Audiobooks? Honestly I listen to more books in the car than I read thanks to librivox.org...but you can get most new releases...and listen to them on your iPod/phone while you do something else. Like rest your head on a heating pad.

It's also occurred to me that I should try reading books using my iPhone. I downloaded a Kindle app for it. Maybe I should try monkeying around with it.

i recently finished Living Dead in Dallas and now I'm reading Club Dead. Charlaine's books are addictive.

I listen to a ton of books in the car too! Just finished one and need to get another one while I am at work tomorrow. I haven't read the Sookie books yet. Those are on the list too.
