DailyLit

I am still slogging through Joyce's Ulysses, but have been making notes as I go, so the moment I finish I can post my review. Since I have it as an actual book, I am reading while I do my exercise each morning.

For many of the other books on this list, I don't own a copy, won't be able to afford to buy one, and am not hopeful of finding them in my rural library.

However, I have found a way to access some of them:

DailyLit has a large selection of titles, and will email you the the whole book, broken up into convenient small messages that take less than 5 minutes to read. You can choose how frequently the emails are sent.

Although not quite as convenient for me as reading while on my exercise bike, this does seem like a good way to read books which I can't obtain any other way. Maybe one day I will get lucky and be able to afford a PDA so I can still read & exercise at the same time!!!
