Thanks! I meant to add two books that I squeezed in over Christmas after I traded in my kindle for the nook - I read "Every Last One" and "Even Silence Has an End". I would recommend both. Looking forward to a lot of reading in 2011. I have already read 3 books this year.

Glad you brought this back to the fore. I wanted to print out a list last year but it escaped me. I received a Kindle for Christmas so no more excuses to neglect some good reading.

Thanks :toast:
