Nook-tastic!

As I’ve mentioned, I bought a Nook Simple Touch and so far I love it. The only problems are that I forget about the books because they aren’t in front of me AND I buy random things that are on sale. So far I’ve purchased just a few titles, but I’ve downloaded even more free public domain works and a couple of eGalleys from NetGalley (I’ve borrowed from the library, too!). However, I want to make sure I’m reading what I’m BUYING! So here’s where I’ll keep my list of titles I’ve purchased and why I bought them (some are for silly reasons and eventually this list will make me feel bad for spending money on something I haven’t enjoyed yet — I’m trying to be more aware of my frivolous spending).
