Reading Materials If today's news interested you, you might also enjoy The Monkey Handlers by G. Gordon Liddy. It's been a long time since I read it, but I certainly remember it being a good book. I went down to the Tattered Cover yesterday to find some reading material for my vacation. I picked up Holes and Seabiscuit for light reading on the airplane. Grabbing two more fanciful books made me feel like I should grab something a bit more weighty too. I doubt I'll finish it, and I may not even start it, but I feel like I should read it because I've never read any of her stuff and the references are ubiquitous, so I grabbed Atlas Shrugged too. It was thie first time in a long time that I had purchased books from anywhere other than Amazon. I felt a little guilty doing so. Shouldn't I - as a citizen of the 21st Century - be supporting e-commerce? I'll generally shop online if given the choice. I didn't like having to stop and ask someone whether Holes and Seabiscuit were available in paperback and then to point me in the right direction. On Amazon I can figure that out all by myself. Monetarily, two of the books were the same price while I paid about $6.50 too much for Seabiscuit. Of course, I didn't have to pay shipping and handling and I was able to walk home with the books yesterday. That's really what it came down to: I waited until the last minute to buy my reading materials, so I had to shop locally. |
