Books and more books

 Between Santa and sales, I've managed to acquire an assortment of e-readers.  Meanwhile, my local library has acquired more and more e-books.  So here's what I've been up to the past two months.  Typically, I'm on the waiting lists for lots of books in various formats (including print), and perversely, they tend to arrive via the landslide method.
 Not a bad book in the bunch
