I want to draw attention once again to the amazing Project Gutenberg. I've started reading a 19th century British detective novel recently, and since it's out of copyright, it's on PG's website. This being the case, I can get up in the morning and read my book on the bus on the way to work, I can read snips and snatches on PG's site during the day when there's no work to be done, I can read it on the way home on the bus, I can read it while dinner's cooking, and I can read it before I go to bed!
Hurray for Project Gutenberg, who allows bookworms like me to leave my paperbound copy safe and unincriminatingly in my bag but still read it some during the day at work, thus having a completely uninterrupted day of reading!
(Oh, and anyone who's into Sherlock Holmes era British literature should check out The Moonstone by Wilkie Collins. It's hillarious!)
