And I agree with Mark. I got your book via Amazon just yesterday and, based upon an initial inspection, very much poetry indeed. Mark, not at all. You are right about the dauntosity (a new word?) of the list, and I took no offense. I'm already wishing I had more fiction on the list, but will power through. :) I have a friend who just got his Kindle a few weeks ago and I've played around with it a bit. It really is that cool, but it will be worth the wait. Assuming, of course, I actually buy it. LL, thanks! And I agree with Mark.

She said it really is about the coolest thing she's ever seen. Not to make you second guess yourself or anything. I'm not about to buy one. We'd have to stop eating for a month.

But then I realize I've become completely inflexible on this issue. : ) Brandon, I hope it didn't sound like I was criticizing you for reading non-fiction. I'm sure I should read more of it. L.L.'s book counts as poetry, by the way. Not non-fiction. L.L., no.
