Nook is the e-reader from Barnes & Noble. You down load the book you want into the Nook.

LOL, the book I am reading now is really an off the wall book for me.. it's The 10th Kingdom by Kathryn Wesley. I am finding it a rather interesting venture though! I love Nora Roberts, Debbie Macomber, Sandra Brown, Joanne Fluke, Robin Pilcher, Luanne Rice... just to name a few.. I read a bunch a books a year!

Clare O'Donohue has three quilting books that are great, and don't forget Terri Thayer's three books which I just started!
Then there is the series by the author EVERYONE knows, Jennifer Chiaverini!

Thanks for this web site, that is a really neat "book keeper". I have the Nook and the Sony E Reader and love them both as I read everyday. My favorites are mysteries but right now I am reading Laura Bush's Spoken From the Heart, and The Other Wes Moore by Wes Moore. My favorite author is Mary Higgins Clark.
Yup, i LOOOOOOOOOVE my kindle too. Don't know what i ever did without one. I've been eyeing the pattern for the kindle bag that is at Moda Bakeshop.
