Second Life is a 3-D interactive world where you can create an avatar and interact with other people. Some people call it a game. Some people are making a living just working in Second Life. There have been some good video games that have come out of Second Life. There have even been people who have met, fallen in love and married in the real world because of Second Life.

All of this is completely disinteresting to me.

When my friend, Aliza Sherman, showed me around Elysian Isle, however, my mind opened up to the possibility that Second Life might have a spot for me. Random House Publishing owns Elysian Isle. They have made a beautiful and relaxing spot where you can enjoy the company of others who like to read.

This is Second Books, where you can find information about books and reading groups. There is one that meets every Tuesday from 1-3pm SLT at the Elysian Isle Cafe.

If you need directions to Elysian Isle, this link should get you there:
