The Kindle Has Arrived

Since my last post, life has been insanely busy. In an attempt to carve out time for my favorite hobby (writing, in case you were guessing) I am going to expand on my last entry. Last month, my fabulous husband and I had our one year wedding anniversary (yay!) and took a trip to Disney World. I, obviously being an inconsiderate wife, thought the trip was our anniversary gift. However, my husband trumped me and surprised me with a Kindle (pre-downloaded with a couple books, as he thinks of everything).

Over this past month I have downloaded 10 books and finished three of them. I LOVE having the Kindle - the accessibility of basically any book I can think of is fabulous. Since I have been an avid reader for many years, I am actually finding it difficult to come across novels that I have not already read. I have basically been harassing my friends through social media posts for recommendations - some I have taken, some I am still pondering. Now that I have the Kindle, I am definitely going to have to expand my genres.

No more are the days of relaxing Chick-Lits (Shopaholic searies - I do love Kinsella) and dreamy classics (Hester Prynne and Jane Eyre - sigh). They have already been consumed and digested - now is the time for expansion. In the past, I have always been a fiction-addict. So, I need to expand my horizons to include non-fiction... who and what will be the new ventures is still unknown, however.

Any non-fiction suggestions are greatly appreciated....
