Quick note to readers looking for a movie/book connection-

The movie "John Carter of Mars" is coming out in March, 2012. It's based on the Edgar Rice Burroughs book 'A Princess of Mars' - first of a series of Mars books. There are free copies out there for Kindle users and the ERB foundation has pdfs/ebooks available on their website.

If you like old-fashioned pulp science fiction you'll like this series.

Love them - I just got the first 5 Barsoom on my Kindle, hoping I can get hubby to read them so he'll go to the movie with me!

Series junkie here! Love JR Ward, Diana Gabaldon, George RR Martin, Karen Marie Moning, Nalini Singh...


Currently reading "The Dream Thief" by Shana Abe, on my Nook.

Checking in with "You Are Your Own Gym" by Mark Lauren daily, on my Nook.


I LOVE my Nook Color, and I was one of those people who thought I'd hate to be without a real book in my hand. I still hit up the library regularly though. I rarely buy books, even on the Nook my books are rented. I'm frugal!

I love and own everything by Moning - and thanks for the reminder of Shana Abe - I read the Thief series in the past - it was a good read and worth a second go round!

For those of you that like Sara Gruen's Water for Elephants, The Ape House was really good, too. Actually, I liked it better than WFE.

Drizzt is awesome. One of my biggest disappointments was having to work the day RA Salvatore was at Comic Con. Because I'm a dork too.

Envy, by Harold Boris.

Envy is the first work on that important ingredient of human experience since Melanie Klein's book in 1957. Yet envy has long been identified as the critical element in the negative therapeutic reaction and accounts for at least some of the difficulty in engaging the hard-to-reach. But what exactly is it that the haves have that the have-nots envy? The breast, the penis, generativity, wealth, position, power? After studying the individual qua individual and as a member of a group and community, Harold Boris reached the conclusion that there is something even more fundamental than these - that the basis of envy is life itself. Taking off from this thesis as presented in his previous books, Passions of the Mind and Sleights of Mind, Boris shows that to be living and to grow up, marry, mate and reproduce, can be almost entirely separate from feeling that one truly has the right to do so. There are those who feel authentic and meant to be and they flourish, and there are those who feel that their life and success is an imposture. The former feel alive, the latter hollowed out with dread and culpability. It is as if there is a right that some have and some don't: those who have it - or seem to - are envied by those who don't. Though therapy can help an envious person get better, it also carries the risk of such an increase in self-envy as to bring the treatment to a screeching halt, or worse. Boris shows how at least some of the panic resulting from the self-envy that can bring therapy to an impasse or a disaster can be averted by a careful restructuring of the therapeutic relationship.

Next up is the latest Tim Dorsey.
