And honestly, if it weren't for the review copies I get in the mail, I wouldn't have read anything current this year either. One of the best perks of being a books blogger :-)...<BR/><BR/><B>Mike</B> - I've found that at Barnes and Noble, when I add my member discount to a bestselling hardcover (which is already marked down at least 30%), it's not much more expensive than a trade paperback. But I actually prefer the paperbacks - easier to carry around - so I wait.<BR/><BR/>I read before I go to sleep - if I last more than 15 minutes, it's a big night :-).Florindahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09789402061034734894noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3177722328294970217.post-6390853305966851492008-10-02T14:50:00.000-07:002008-10-02T14:50:00.000-07:00I've read two books published in 2008 I think. I've been reading more online short fiction or older stuff. I agree that new books are too expensive. I like taking advantage of the major sales when you can get a hardcover for paperback prices. <BR/><BR/>I know I couldn't read for 24 hours. I fall asleep if I try to read after 8pm!Mikehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03125852166745378716noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3177722328294970217.post-79831965787993827052008-10-02T09:18:00.000-07:002008-10-02T09:18:00.000-07:00I am ashamed to admit that I haven't read a single one of those books; I never get them when they first come out because they cost way more than I can afford! I love the idea of a readathon; I could really get into that. Not right now, but in the spring? You betcha!Korihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17523892197119604721noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3177722328294970217.post-56872068066174666682008-10-02T09:14:00.000-07:002008-10-02T09:14:00.000-07:00<B>Bermudaonion</B> - Believe me, I completely relate to that one :-)!Florindahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09789402061034734894noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3177722328294970217.post-64695824842246809892008-10-02T07:03:00.000-07:002008-10-02T07:03:00.000-07:00The 24-Hour Read-a-Thon sounds like fun, but I'm at the age where an all-nighter is sleeping all night without having to get up to go to the bathroom.bermudaonionhttp://bermudaonion.wordpress.com/noreply@blogger.com
