Let's try to keep them as ebooks, so everyone can share in the love :D Thought it would be nice to share some new favorites.

I'd have to say in the past few months, my top five (in no particular order):
1. In the Heart of the Sea The Tragedy of the Whaleship Essex by Nathaniel Philbrick. Great history book about the Whaleship Essex.

2. Darkfever by Karen Marie Moning. This was (and I think still is) a Suvudu free library book. Totally a guilty pleasure, and I ended out buying the whole series.

3. The Johnstown Flood by David McCullough. Another great history book. Amazing how small decisions can have such an impact on so many lives.

4. Twenties Girl A Novel by Sophie Kinsella. Her books are a guilty pleasure of mine, and this one didn't disappoint. Heartwarming book :)

5. The Darkest Night by Gena Showalter. For paranormal romance lovers. I took a chance and bought the bundle on Sony (4 books for $13, not bad) and gobbled it all up.

What about you guys?

I've only had my Sony 505 for about 2 weeks and now also have the Astak Pocket Pro. So far I've
read

Of Human Bondage by W. Somerset Maugham
At the Earth's Core by Edgar Rice Borroughs
and am currently reading Sons and Lovers by D.H. Lawrence

A few short Stories by Phillip K Dick.
Exhale by Ted Chiang

...

Kenny, at least you've been busy these past few weeks! If there's some others you loved pre-ereader feel free to post. How was Of Human Bondage?

I enjoy it a lot. It is one of many on my classics to be read list. I've rated a few other books on my profile.

The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo
Exhalation - Ted Chiang

Hmm :) Haven't been reading too much lately

Hey Howard, what did you think of Exhalation?

I loved it!

Am reading Hornblower now, so 5 books would be hard ;)

One Missisippi was the best one in a long time!

The last five five-star reads:

The Colony of Unrequited Dreams by Wayne Johnston
One Native Life by Richard Wagamese
Ali and Nino: A Love Story by Kurban Said
Silk by Alessandro Baricco
The Road by Cormac McCarthy

The Road! The Road! Yeah! :)

I've been focused on short things, Flash Fiction, Prose Poetry, and short stories.

I recently re-read a few Anthony Doerr stories, man is he GOOD!
Also picked up his two collections in ebook - The Shell Collector and Memory Wall.

Also Stuart Dybek - WOW! Amazing stuff in The Coast of Chicago and Ecstatic Cahoots!

I'm currently reading Stephen Berg - Shaving an amazing collection of prose poetry that I'm having to read slowly because it keeps knocking me on my ass!

oh and I have One Native Life by Richard Wagamese on my TBR list...one of these days.....so much to read....so little time!

^One Native Life would fit into your flash fiction area. The chapters are short and very self-contained. More like little glimpses.
