I haven't blogged much lately, and I blame the reading.
I have developed this habit of putting books on hold throught the library system. It started when I discovered that there is a library located right near a subway stop that is routinely on my way to other things (as opposed to the library that is near me, which is actually out of the way of my every day life) . I also found out that the library system will gladly bring books to the library of my choosing! I just go online, ask them to bring a book to my library AND THEY DO IT!!!! As a result of this I have read over 10 books in about three weeks.
I must say that for all the hype and all the people saying, that you have to read it because it will change your life, Eat Pray Love was still a really good read. And the Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night Time, also very good.

Library systems are AMAZING!! I have my next reading group pick (Bel Canto by Ann Patchett) waiting for me at our local library - I'll be going there tonight!
Eat, Pray, Love was a good read - my favourite part was the EAT part of her journey! :) Haven't read the other book yet.. but have heard good things about it!
I love the ability to suspend holds but you still move up the list and can sort of "schedule" when you will get the book... assuming the list isn't too long.
Also if you are downtown (Reference Library) or for some reason in North York, you can use the Browsery to find new books that can't be put on hold and that you can renew. It is pretty cool.
