I loved Shadow of the Wind too, so i bought his next one The Angles Game.... beware, that is even more dark and depressing (but still a great book!)

I have the Nook. Personally, I wouldn't go with Nookcolor. It's geared more towards tablet people like the iPad. If you're going to do serious reading the LCD screen strains your eyes. I'm INLOVE with my nook. Go to facebook and join the nook page. There's a ton of discussions on both. I don't see why you would need colors for books. They aren't in color, they are black and white. Unless you read a ton of magazines. But that's just my opinion!!!!! Oh and the Nook gets an update this month! YAY!

I am kind of a tablet type person, lol....I haven't bought an ipad yet, but have very seriously considered one (and it's still not out of the running really). I was actually thinking of getting one as my ereader but it's a little bigger than I want. I have the Samsung Galaxy S phone - which is all touch screen, and has a super bright display screen, and I totally love it. So if the nook color is just kind of a bigger version of my phone I'd love it. But you're right - hours of reading my be an eye strain. I think I'm going to take your suggestion and check out the facebook page tho!

I just finished a few books that were recommended in this thread.

 

The glass castle - good book!  It was one of those books that I just kept thinking "OMG are you kidding me?" while reading, but not in a bad way.  In a way that I just had to keep reading lol.  When I was done I felt compelled to tell someone about the book and what happened in it.  Unfortunately that person was my husband who really didn't care.  But at least I got it out of my system :)

 

Diary for Nicholas - I needed a really fast easy read and this was the perfect book for that.  Kept my interest and I finished it in 2 days.

 

The next one I'll start this week is the Girl with the dragon tattoo, since all you ladies rave about it!

    • Hi everyone! I have been doing lots of research on various wedding venues all around Mexico, my fiance wants a destination wedding and I am happy to have a wedding wherever so long as the vibe is right and guests are happy!  I have been seriously looking at Cabo Azul and was trying to find potential costs for them, but only found a page about their wedding costs from 2010. Does anyone have any updated information on costs / reviews they would like to share of this venue? Or advice in general, anything helps. Thanks so much, happy wedding planning to all!
    • Hello everyone, I am dreaming of a wedding in Costa Rica and was wondering if I could get any help with venues and wedding planners. I am thinking Tamarindo because a close friend of mine lives there and I've been in town more than a couple of times, she's being helpful but is at a loss when it comes to this subject really so I was wondering if anyone here had recommendations. I am not closed to other town suggestions either, if I happen to find a good place and staff somewhere else. These are the places I have so far, has anyone had any experience with any of them?  Stay In Tamarindo Luxury Villas in Costa Rica Luxury Villas Pinilla Tropical Homes of Costa Rica The Point Luxury Villa Thank you so much for your help!
