Went to the library and a very very helpful member of staff went out of their way to find some 'quick read' type book thingys aimed at dyslexic adults, with that nice font thats supposed to help you not flip the letters...
Anyway, 'A sea Change' and 'Darkness Rising' have come home with me.
The Practical Cogitator or The Thinker’s Anthology from 1945, selected and edited by Charles P. Curtis, Jr. and Ferris Greenslet
and Garden of Microbial Delights: A Practical Guide to the Subvisible World from 1988, by Dorion Sagan and Lynn Margulis
One day I started reading something by James Patterson. I decided I liked him and now I'm some women's murder club series he's doing. I read 1st To Die and I'm now on 2nd Chance. I like murder mystery type books.
I also like books that are sweet and charming. Once in a while I will read something based on a true story if the story plot interests me. The first book I mentioned was 126 chapters and almost 3000 pages long. Longest book I've ever read.
I also downloaded “Eliot’s 5 Foot Shelf” Harvard Classics? It’s “only” 180 books, plus important speeches, etc. contained within 51 volumes… from 1909 & earlier.
It hit copyright recently, so the entire download? Was less than 50 cents.
I usually use project Gutenberg for books that have exceeded their copyrights (FREE), but that requires online access, and I like that for less than a dollar I can have 180 of them in my back pocket, anywhere that has electricity.
