    i don’t know if you’ve ever read large print books before, but i HAVE to read only large print due a rare eye condition that has me practically blind, but i wanted to mention that it’s been shown that large print format books increases reading comprehension, reading speed, etc, even in readers who do not have vision problems. you may find that once you go large print format, you won’t go back!

      Oh wow, I’ve never heard that. I like reading large print, but I read most of my books from the library, and I’m hesitant to take a LP copy of a book unless it’s the only one available. I don’t want to take it away from people who can only read those ones.

    I am loving this season of Big Brother! I can't believe that they have used the POV every time so far (has it been every time or almost every time?}. I also can't believe that Angela is still there. I personally hated it when Tucker got voted out. He was so much fun to watch. At first, I didn't know if I would love the A.I. theme, but I really am liking it.

    Yes! How to Solve Your Own Murder has SO many characters. Every new page had some new person to keep track of and figure out how they fit in the past and present. I absolutely could not read it slowly. Had to keep plugging through it because if I missed too much time, I’d forget who everyone was.
