I have 2 Advance Reader Copies of Radio Shangri-La: What I Learned in Bhutan, the Happiest Kingdom on Earth that I would like to give away. First call will go to folks in the Tri-Cities.
Leave a comment letting me know you would like a copy.
Not everything makes it to the blog.
Twitter is, of course, a great place to post links and thoughts as they occur.
Weekly, on Twitter Tuesday, I try to pull them into a blog post and add some more substance to the 140 characters.

E-books may be all the rage but personally, I like to share my books, I like to buy them used, and occasionally I like to sell them. None of these things are possible with e-books.

I plan on 'mapping' my book reading in 2011.
It will be fun to see how much of the world I can cover between the covers.
Books make the best presents. When my kids were younger we would pop into the Bookworm and they could pick up a used book. Memories. Another reason books are the perfect gift.
Ever wonder if your love of books has become an obsession? This cartoon will show you that it has.
Courtney has put together quite a nice Christmas gift for one of her lucky followers.
Everything from a book to candles and some great Starbucks to go with it.

Not even counting the 5 volume 'Works of Francis Schaeffer' I have many of Schaeffer's books and even have read most. I remember seeing the movie "How Should We Then Live" in High School and the impact it made on my life.

Looks like WalMart has it for about $7. Would be a good 'office' book.

The more I think about e-books the less I like them.
Although the above articles gives ways that e-books could be successful,
I may just be too much of a Luddite to ever give up the feel of pulp in my hands.
