Books :]
I was VERY excited today when I got home from my 8 hours of He** o.o
((if you have children in daycare...next time you go in thank every person you run into...)) to find the NEWEST Sookie Stackhouse book sitting on the table 
I'm so excited to read it
are there any books you guys are waiting patiently for? or any that you just can't put down right now?

thats what I said to my mom!! but I came home and it was sitting on the the table I was all like :O
she preordered it back at the beginning of April for me off amazon so I don't know if that has anything to do with it coming early or not
she was charged twice so maybe I'll get 2
I'm glad it came today though, I was going to start pulling my hair out having to wait another 24 hours for it XD

I think I should be able to order it on my nook at 6 tonight, but I have the rest of the series in book form.

how do you like your nook?
I ALMOST bought the Kindle but then didn't because I'm not sure I'd like reading a book without the book XD lol

I LOVE my nook. They keep updating it, like they've added a web browser and games to it this week. I do still borrow books from the library, but I love taking the nook to the beach or to swim lessons, or waiting rooms, because it is just so portable and fits in my purse. I love that if I ever fill it up (not likely, since it can hold 1600 books or something), I can add an SD card for additional storage. The only thing I don't like, it does go through battery faster than the Kindle, BUT I can buy an extra battery and a charger, unlike the Kindle, that doesn't have a removable battery. Another downside is, B&N doesn't have international sales rights, so if I travel out of the US I can't buy new books while I'm out of the country.

Ummm... Do textbooks count?  I don't seem to have much time to read for pleasure these days but it is one of my all time favorite things to do. Curl up with a good book. I'll stay awake for hours just trying to get more reading in. I like vampire books also and a fan of True Blood. Although, I gotta say I'm a sucker for romantic books. I used to love Nicholas Sparks, but all his stuff is the same now. Also a huge fan of Jodi Picoult.

I am always waiting for the next Dean Koontz novel. He's my favorite!!
I mostly enjoy suspense thriller, but I love the Laurien Berenson books too (I need a little poodle in everything I do)

I adore books, but sadly i too am only reading textbooks and lecture notes right now. One more month and i will be back to Real reading! I have books liked up on my bookshelf to read. I need to buy another bookshelf to hold them all. I want to start that poodle series mentioned on here also.
What is the new book you got about Keith? I have never heard of it.

the newest one I just got is called "Dead in the Family" 
its the 11th book in the southern vampire series which is called the Sookie Stackhouse series now
and its what the hit HBO show True Blood is based on
I personally like the books and the show but alot of people like one or the other
but other than loving the books I love the author, I've only read a few of her other books but they're just as SUCK you in as the Sookie series
