NOTICE: (Updated March 5, 2010)
Beginning December 19, 2009, Books 'N Border Collies will be posting but only intermittently while I pursue personal goals. I plan to share some reading I'm doing, but there will be no reviews. I will, however, be sharing my exploration of vegetarian cooking and the cookbooks and websites I use to educate myself. I hope you enjoy it!

24 Hour Read-AThon - I'm In!!
I'm in! I decided at the last minute, so now I need to go to bed so I can get up early and get started!! I certainly won't read all this tomorrow, but in addition to catching up on a few short stories for the Short Story Challenge, here are a few of the books I have lined up as potentials fodder:
Man In The Dark -- Paul Auster
Dumb Witness -- Agatha Christie
Mortal Stakes -- Robert B. Parker
The Queen's Man -- Sharon Kay Penman
The Book of Samson -- David Maine
Change We Can Believe In -- Barack Obama
The Shock Doctrine -- Naomi Klein
Amusing Ourselves To Death -- Neil Postman
Wild Boy: My Life In Duran Duran -- Andy Taylor
There are a bunch more that I may dabble in, but these were the first ones to catch my eye when I decided to go for it.
See everyone bright and early!

Have fun with the Read-A-Thon. You've made some nice choices. I haven't read any of those titles, but the Obama and Klein books are on my list.
YAYYYYYYY!!!! I'm so very excited that you decided to participate! Can't wait to hear what you think of the books you get to (I would rec Man in the Dark first...lol).
Good luck! Have fun - I'll be keeping an eye on you. Hope you get a good nap tonight.
I'm so glad you're in! I should go to bed, but I just can't seem to drag myself there! :)
Have a great time Lezlie!
The only one of those I know - and have read - is Man In The Dark. I hope you get to read that one. The others sound just from their titles like an interesting mix of books.
Best of luck!
yay! So glad you joined :D
Yay from me too!! :-)
I haven't heard of any of your books, looking forward to your reviews and undoubtedly expanding my tbr list!
Thanks, everyone! This is going to be so fun!
