I have just finished The Art of Racing in the Rain by Garth Stein. My friend loaned it to me and I finished the read in two settings because it was so gripping. I laughed, cried, etc. Definitely just what I needed to read this weekend.
Sometimes, I use the laptop to read some of the books I had downloaded to my Kindle. I like to use the larger screen to view the pixel print when I am relaxing after a full day of doing close work with my eyes. Also, using the laptop to view diagrams, prints, etc. is terrific.
This is a change of pace from reading quilt books from cover to cover ;-)
