Thanks, Bina, for putting this poll up. I came here today and ProBoards looks totally different! Did everyone else get "upgraded?"

I suppose we should make the poll now. If someone has the time, go for it. Otherwise, I will try to remember to do it tonight (hard to get back in the habit of coming here).

Bunheads is canceled? Does anyone watch Hart of Dixie? I like it way more than I think I should - it gives off a Gilmore Girls vibe to me (small town filled with quirky characters).

Because Ben is home after 6 weeks away and he is getting me ice cream.

I have a tumblr that I still haven't figured out the best way to use: mybooksmylife.tumblr.com. I also have one for my son which I do actually try to update: evanmichaelnadeau.tumblr.com.

I do love Wodehouse in audio!
I can't do Librivox anymore - I've been spoiled by professional narrators. I do like classics on audio though. use the library so still free.

(It's very possible there is a thread here on this already, but here I go anyway).
Since leaving these boards, I have become addicted to audiobooks. Since the baby, it's easily half of my reading and I'm always looking for recommendations.
So what books have you enjoyed in audio?

I'm currently reading Khaled Hosseini's And the Mountains Echoed. I'm almost done with this as well.

I am also excited for Night Film. Feels like forever ago when we all read Special Topics.

Short works for me. I can't really think of any suggestions though! Should we give it a few more days to get suggestions out there and then make a poll? Or will we lose momentum?

I am currently reading The Amazing Adventures of Kavalier and Clay, but not really, because I keep starting and finishing other books in the meantime... But at the moment I am 'between books'! It took me like 6 months to actually finish Kavalier and Clay. I read many books in between.

Hey guys. A few of us were chatting on twitter about how we miss this place so I thought I'd see if there was interest in getting a book discussion going. Thoughts? Book suggestions?

Wow. I guess it's been a year since I was here. Can we go back to 2007 when this was my favorite place on the internet?

Every so often I feel like I've left my friends behind so I come back to check in. It's so quiet over here these days, huh? I'm sorry - I'm part of that problem.
Anyway, I am currently reading THE AGE OF ICE in print and AND THE MOUNTAINS ECHOED on audio. Not reading much print these days - thank goodness for audiobooks.
