In Honor of Scottish-Canadian inventor - Alexander Graham Bell (March 3, 1847 – August 2, 1922) most famous for his invention of the telephone...Read a book with one of the following words in the title (Phone, Telephone, Cell, Cellular, Call, Calling, Called, Communicate, Communication, Conversation, Talk, Talking, Talked...similar words may be acceptable check with me).

I read that whole series -- it is a lot of fun!

Usako (bbmeltdown) | 1256 comments Ashley, the series does look good. The titles alone make me smile.

And for those who want to read something different, I came across this during a search - Belle de Jour: Diary of an Unlikely Call Girl
