Fiction does not equal Erotica

I went looking for eBooks to load onto my PocketPC. Not that I really read on it much, but it is nice to have. I have some free ones from the Univ of Virginia e-Text library, but I’m looking for some more contemporary books. So I went to amazon.com – nothing. I went to Barnes & Noble – nothing. Feeling desperate I went to Microsoft.com and selected the MS Reader link (since that's the software I use to read the eBooks.) That had links to various e-texts and a list of categories on the right nav bar. I chose “Fiction” and got all sorts of stuff I would put under “Erotica” (which was also a category.) Now I’m getting the impression that because I read e-texts I’m going to be labeled in an unflattering way. Finally finding a book that looks mostly tame, I look to see where I might buy such an eBook. And there, right in front of my eyes, is a link to Powells.com. Yea!! My beloved Powell’s Bookstore from my hometown is a wonderful vendor of eBooks! Click MS Reader format and click Literature and the first item on page 1 is “A Thousand Splendid Suns,” our April book selection. Woo Hoo!!
