[bookshare-discuss] Re: Not here

Dear Shelley   Ernie and All,

I made a list before I was approved, too. Since I'm electronically 
challenged, I took longer than usual to get through the process. Once I got 
busy digging  through the thousands of book titles I was happily pacified 
and occupied until my membership was in order.

Once you are a member, what kinds of books will you be reading? First I read 
a short kid's book about a leprechaun, then an inspector Banks mystery 
called, "Playing With Fire," which was terrific and now I'm reading another 
mystery with Wind in the title and a fabulous book about Ireland.

So, go with Shelley's advice and fill your waiting days with book list 
making. You'll be a member long before you finish your list. In fact, you'll 
never finish that list because new books are added so fast.

Lissi
