The Spring, Summer and (Hopefully Not) Fall 2008 Reading List - Week 3
Seeing as how my week 1 and 2 update was less than a week ago, there’s not much more to say as I move into week 4 of this sixteen-book festival with thirteen books remaining on my list. So here’s short update…
Books completed in week 3
“My Name Is Russell Fink” (Michael Snyder)
Books read or started in week 3
“Stone Crossings: Finding Grace in Hard and Hidden Places” (L. L. Barkat) (Page 60)
“Duma Key: A Novel” (Stephen King) (Audio - Hour 8 of 20)
The Kindle Go-No Go Assessment: 9
I shot from a 7 to a 9 in the last week because Amazon has finally cleared the backlog of Kindles and is no longer out of stock. People are ordering and now getting delivery estimates on the same day. Compare this to my five weeks without a sniff from a few months ago.
If I’m being totally honest, which I am, I would have already re-ordered had I not made a public vow to read sixteen books before formally deciding what to do.
Darn me and my blog foddering ideas!
