One of the things I love most about technology when it comes to books is that I can download samples of anything I want to read before I commit to it (see: spend money).

It was just one of those evenings where I didn’t want to do anything that involved cleaning or laundry or housework of any kind. I wanted to play with my blog. I wanted a new theme, but not really, and I had to “quick” teach myself how to play with CSS. By the end, I was bleary eyed and ready to be done.
And then I stayed up for another hour and a half reading in bed. I’m reading The Other Boleyn Girl.
I normally don’t read much from that time period (1520s in this case), but I am a sucker for royalty and such. And seeing the ads for the movie made from the book seemed pretty interesting. (I probably won’t enjoy the movie as much as the book; I never do!). Anyway, I am …
