the bookworm in me is applauding

Guess what ? If you own a Chicago Public Library Card, you can now download audio books for free!! I just checked, and they currently have over 1300 books for immediate download, some which can even be burned to cd. For the next few months, don't be surprised to find me avidly "reading" in the car.

So far I am set on “reading”:

~Dying to Cross: The Worst Immigrant Tragedy in American History by Jorge Ramos

~The Dharma Bums by Jack Kerouac

~1984 by George Orwell

~Spook: Science Tackles the Afterlife by Mary Roach

Oh! 1984! Yay. And Mary Roach - she's funnier than hell. Have you read her monthly column in the Reader's Digest?
