for one more book list

the first time since my first time i have read a book in one day. mitch albom's for one more day. mom, you'll know him because dad read tuesdays with morrie; i think leanne and mandy have both read that one too.

for one more day was good. i enjoy these kind of reads because i'll find myself examining what i'm doing and if i'm happy with it, what i'd like to do differently, what i'm doing right .. and so on. it makes me feel bad about wasting time and gets me thinking about how to make the most of the time i've got.

there's a part that i like in a conversation between the ex-ball player and another character; the ballplayer has realized he might die soon.

have i much time?
i don't know
not a lot then
what' a lot?

it's all relative. makes me think. make sure not to miss a chance to blow, as a pop artist once said.

that will all seem very arbitrary to those who haven't read the book. i don't know if you'll like it, but i did; and i liked tuesdays with morrie as well. i haven't read five people you meet in heaven. the one chance i had i lost because i gave it away as a gift too quickly; should have bought it a day sooner, i would have had it for one more day.

the first book i read in one day was the old man and the sea. ironically the friend who gave me this title to read was given tuesdays with morrie to read from me ... he lost that book and, as far as i know, never read it.
