I actually just started browsing the free downloads on the forums, and it looks like I can find more than enough to keep me occupied for awhile

I live in upstate NY, no... not even close to the city! Most people around here would say they prefer cows, but since I have not completely transformed into a redneck yet, I am going to have to go with dogs. However, the complete transformation is impending... well, hopefully not!

As far as books are concerned, I just finished the Twilight series, which as cliche as it sounds, I found to be a VERY good read. Some of my other favorites (and recent reads) are: The Kite Runner and A Thousand Splendid Suns (I know, I'm a little late to board that train), The Memory Keeper's Daughter, all of Vince Flynn's books and both historical fiction and non-fiction (1421, 1776, Invisible Nation, The Private Life of Chairman Mao), and classics like St. Augustine's Confessions, To Kill a Mockingbird, A Raisin in the Sun, Silas Marner, Billy Budd, So Long a Letter
Next up on my to-read list is the Sookie Stackhouse Series, Pride and Prejudice, Thomas Paine's Common Sense and Shanghai Girls

I never realized what an eclectic taste in books I have until I typed it out... wow! And I'm sure you really didn't want to know all of that about my book likes, but oh well, I got really into my thoughts when I was posting that and... that's what happened! haha...
I am getting a silver PRS-505, but I only defaulted to that because there aren't pink ones available. I did, however, find a website that makes skins for Sony Readers, so I think I may be investing in one of those to make mine a little more "me."

Thank you for the welcome!
