Holy Crap! My dad read The Host...

I'm so pleased with my dad! He read The Host by Stephenie Meyer
AND HE LIKED IT! Go Dad! From all reports, the book is a compelling read. Ellen has my copy. ELLEN: Finish it quickly. I didn't even know my dad would read fantasy. I'll have to ask him more questions about his reading tastes.

I've got the second book in the Leven Thumps' series: Leven Thumps and the Whispered Secret by Obert Skye. I read the first one because a 7th grader (Alex) strongly recommended it to me, as in read this or I will pester you to death until you do! But in a good way. 8-) It was very entertaining. I imagine this one will be as well.
Oh, BTW, Audible is having a semi-annual, half-price sale! Woot. I bought bunches of books to listen to as I crochet. I will have oodles to read. I got a several non-fiction titles as well: Cultural Literacy, The God Delusion and The Cheating Culture. Hopefully, they will be worth the purchase price, even at half price. I'm such a weenie about non-fiction...it has to be very engaging to keep my interest.
