Over the weekend I read Doc, the new biography of Roy Halladay. It is well done and will appeal to baseball fans who are missing the game as much as I am. (An interesting note: the cover of the American edition has him wearing Phillies garb, while the Canadian cover has him wearing his Blue Jays uniform.)

It’s slim pickings for Kindle deals today, but there are at least a couple.
