Petra, I like both hon. Just if I am sittin in 1 place ie on here, I can listen to an Audio and still chat. But sometimes I prefer to read a book if its a good book.

I hadn't thought of being able to chat typing and listen to an audio book. That might be possible. The online chatting might absorb the ADD energy in my fingers. Thanks! I'm going to try it when I get back to the island and can grab an audio book from my shop.

Hi there you ambious girl. I have read #22 Like Water for Chocolate and watched movie, unlike anything I read or watched before. I had to for college literature class. It exposed me to another culture and that was good. I HATE to cook and helped to give me an idea why some people may like to cook like they do. Dawn

Dawn, I never watched the film hon x

I also read #42 Frankenstein--loved it. Have yet to see a movie that correctly portrays him. Will soon be reading #34 The Almost Moon, but really enjoyed her Lovely Bones--different take on death- cheers for your goal. heres an idea listen to one book while reading another should get you through pretty quick:)LOL Dawn

ours was marked R and I just skipped the "sexy"parts

Hehe Dawn, I look forward to watchin this soon as I can get a copy lol.

be ready to let the sparks fly next time you're cookin' LOL--I'm on page 50 of Phantom--I'll be able to join you on Almost Moon soon!
