I also have one to read that was given to me but I haven't started that either. I've been too busy beading. I haven’t picked up a new book yet, but I just finished the Karl Malden one.

Ripe all seasons, ready for the plucking. Books are friends. I loved the clip too! Funny that he should be a monk though. Weren't they the pioneers in book making? I am very much afraid that one day books *will* need instructions for the children to open them and read them.... Audio books are not quite my thing. I prefer the act of reading. But a pleasure to hear the actors and a god send in long rides in cars I guess. I am reading "Time of the chrysanthemons" by a greek author. It's fiction about a greek actress of the 19th century travelling on tour around islands and witnessing the local drama. Oh, the simile of book and tree is wonderful.
