There were a number of books on the bus this morning:

The Jewel Trader of Pegu  

Lace Reader  

Eclipse & Breaking Dawn (those covers are so distinctive) 

Dewey 

Another hard-cover with a light-colored dust jacket - wrong angle to see the cover

Two library books

an issue of JAMA

several well-loved mass-market paperbacks

(I had to stand all the way, so I was being nosy )

Excellent snooping!

It made up for today - only one newspaper and the book I was reading (Why We Read Fiction).

I worry that Sony Readers and Kindles will impede our snooping!

Snooped in the hospital (night shift): a patient was reading Team of Rivals by Doris Kearns. He said it was very interesting.

Again, in the hospital: Brideshead Revisited, and a Vince Flynn book (don't remember the title).

i've always been seeing people with that Eat, Pray, Love book and i found it at Goodwill for only .99 cents, i HAD to get it, i wanted to read it before Amberville so im reading it now. Its okay... not as good as i thought it was going to be.
