When this all started, and it seemed much more caring/personal than most of the email blasts I've gotten since this started.

Also, check your library to see if they offer a digital ebook, audio, movie, etc etc app. Mine does and it is great.

I've been listening to Elmer Gantry for the last two weeks.

Listened to Frankenstein and Dracula - both unabridged, right before this one. They have all been excellent and great killers of time, while you work, etc.

All from iphone/iPad/droid/tablet and free w my library card.
