AWESOME little book that I honestly would recommend for folks with kids, even if they're graduating college! Also reading the enhanced version of Kevin Smith's new book "Tough Sh!t" - meaning I get a short video at the beginning of each chapter. Oh, and you may've noticed I referred to my first nook above - that is now Matt's and I finally bought a nook Tablet (16 GB version). I am TOTALLY digging it! Just got it on Saturday and I LOVE it so far! I jut wish that I'd been able to transfer my shelves from my old nook to the new one... it's a bit of a pain to re-create the shelves... but at least I realized I can look up my entire library on bn.com and use that to make sure I get all of the fiction book names down to make it easier to make sure I don't accidentally skip over any more like I did when first creating the shelf. Oh, and I got to freak Matt out when I told him all the stuff I'd put on the calendar app I got for it - what freaked him out? Knowing that we already have plans for May 10... of next year. Season tickets ftw! hehe Little does he know that we actually have things scheduled next summer for other season tickets we have!

Didn't really enjoy it and I'm trying to decide if I should go straight on to the third to "get it over with" or if I should read something else first. (I read the first a couple of months ago and thought it was good, but the second really didn't measure up IMO.) I have another book I'm pretty desperate to read, so might go on to it instead for now.

Originally Posted By Labuda Well, I just finished interrupting Side Jobs to read the entire 50 Shades trilogy. WOW. Loved those books. Anyhow, I'll be taking a hard copy of Side Jobs and my paperback (that was suggested by someone here - maybe ecdc or Dabob?) of "Is that really in the Bible" to read on Election Day since I'll be working in an elementary school for about 14 or so hours that day.

I really liked it a lot, even more than the movie.

And, perhaps get to play with some of my female heroes in the tourney I won a seat in. Woo hoo!

Originally Posted By disneyfreaksk Oh Labuda you are going to enjoy The Hunger Games I just started reading: "It Worked for Me, In Life and Leadership" by Colin Powell. I wish I had this book to read when I was in Jr. High. Great roadmap for success in life!
