Your current Overdrive title is?
Since so many of us get library ebooks, I was curious as to what we are reading specifically from that source (or the latest one, if none current)?

I'm about halfway through The Great Typo Hunt: Two Friends Changing the World, One Correction at a Time -- author's a really nice guy, good travel story, not sure I'm into the typo thing itself though.

Good thread topic!

I'm in chapter two of Global Access Italian Basic Conversation. Goddess knows how long I'll be in chapter two. It's dense and fast-paced. I keep going over and over chapter two.

I just finished Bleeding Kansas by Sara Paretsky, and I've got The Great Typo Hunt on my TBR list!

The Paretsky book is good. It's not one of her Warshawski novels, though those are good reads, too!

Do you read Overdrive ebooks on your Nook?


Since audiobooks don't expire once transferred, I have several backed up.

I tried, but it's too bright; even at the lowest setting. Hoping B&N will fix that problem and allow lower settings. As is, the lowest setting bothers my eyes.

I'll be rooting soon, so maybe that might allow lower brightness levels.

Moving on to A Visit from the Goon Squad....

So wish I could read them on my Kindle instead of my tiny little Droid phone screen. Sigh.
