High-res meaghano: You can sign up on Daily Lit to receive 5-min installments of books at a certain time every day (or MWF, or 5 days/wk) at a time you specify (I chose 6pm, so I can read it on the train ride home), via email or RSS. Ahem. In their words, We created DailyLit because we spent hours each day on email but could not find the time to read a book. Now the books come to us by email. Problem solved. Well, can’t argue with that. AS YOU MAY HAVE SURMISED, I am very attached to books in their physical form and underlining and starring and writing HAH in the margins and shelving them according to importance in my life. But it seems silly to ignore this. And I have been meaning to read A Picture of Dorian Gray, as it has heretofore been one of those books I nod and pretend to know about when people bring it up in conversation or boys try to use it to win me over (you have no idea). But NO MORE PRETENDING, THE JIG IS UP. I will obviously let you know how it goes. I love this completely.
