When I got home from work on Friday I realized that I had left my current book on my desk at work. There were several minutes of panicking - a whole weekend and me without my book! - which culminated in Nick buying a Kindle copy of the damn thing so that I would RELAX. But a Kindle copy isn't MY copy, and so I made life worth living again by remembering that I had an unread copy of “The Polysyllabic Spree”, which is just the right length for a weekend. It turns out that it's also fun and witty, always great qualities to find in your weekend book. I added 3 books to my Goodreads to-read list based solely on his reviews in “The Polysyllabic Spree”, so in the near future we'll see how much my taste and Nick Hornby's align.
