^ you really should, I was really against e-books at first until I realised I could fit like a hundred on my tablet, and whenever I felt the urge to read a certain book I could just find it online.

And it's really quite annoying to read a paper book, all the flipping and bending etc.

Yup, the only drawback is paper books don't run out of battery :/

:laughing:

E-readers are the devil's work.

:clap:
Trollheart makes an excellent point.

I guess i'm taking my Kindle back and exchanging it for some used Playboys then.

Got this Rec from my Aunt. Kind of a Diary of Anne Frank type book. I'm huge on history, especially World War 2 history. Probably run through it after this weekend.

Going 2 hell anyway

honestly who cares, they're not all that different & I still buy paper books. If I like an ebook well enough.

that sounds very moving and sad....have you read House Of Dolls by chance?

i am ripping through A Clash Of Kings right now....and loving it

^ Wait till you get to a Storm of Swords. It's soooo gooood

I haven't read House of Dolls that was actually another rec from a friend. Maybe if i can get the tears wiped away i'll give HOD a chance after.

its a little hard to find and will cost a bit.....but it is a true and dreadful account of life in a concentration camp.....and well worth a read


everyone is telling me "wait till you get to Storm of Swords" :)

I just finished a book called Wittgenstein's Mistress by David Markson. It was amazing. But you do have to know some about Wittgenstein, well it is not a necessity but it brings the book up from great to amazing. Read some of his Tractatus. Then read this book. It was sheer genius.

A friend bought me the Game of Thrones books box set for my birthday. Going to start on that as soon as I finish these four that I'm reading currently:

^you are worse than me....i'm only juggling three books!

i've always wanted to read The Mists Of Avalon.....

It's a good read, but it's very long and sometimes a tad bit tedious. I keep getting distracted from it by other things. But I would definitely still recommend it. It gives an interesting point of view to the legend of Arthur.

Oh, I did forget though, that after the seventh Dark Tower book, and I have to go back and read the new one that just came out, Dark Tower 4.5 . So Game of Thrones will have to wait even longer. :/

i was just talking about 4.5 with some friends the other day

Still reading Dune... **** this is good.

How does it compare to David Lynch's












......mistake:shycouch:?

Finished the Aerosmith autobiography on a cruise earlier this month, about halfway through Killing Yourself to Live.

Had to return Only Revolutions and Pale Fire before I could finish them though. I need to see if I can get them back soon.

Just about to start the second book of the Hunger Games trilogy because everyone is telling me it's worth it.
I don't know how much I can take of it, though, the first one was a little corny at times.

Just finished:

The Hero of Ages by Brandon Sanderson

http://jacketupload.macmillanusa.com...0765356147.jpg

An epic ending to the epic fantasy trilogy. 9/10

Currently reading:

Choke by Chuck Palahniuk

http://ohsonerdgasmic.files.wordpres...1/06/choke.jpg

Good so far. Seems like a short read. I'll report back when finished.

Choke is pretty good, I think Diary and Invisible Monsters are his best tho

It's actually my first Chuck P. Novel. I will look into getting those. I only have Choke, Survivor, and Fight Club on my kindle right now.

I agree that Invisible Monsters is his best but I disliked Diary so much that it made me lose all interest in his books for a couple years.

Really? Why is that? I used to be really into his books, but they get really repetitive and predictable after a while.

i'm reading 2 books at a time , reading The Dragonbone Chair by Tad Williams.... and SIns of the Mother by Tara Hyland

Recently read the Hunger Games:

http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedi...nger_games.jpg

Which I absolutely loved. Never a dull moment really, and her descriptions are always vivid and enthralling. In comparison with the movie, I thought the movie was a brilliant attempt at the book. My only peeve, is that Katniss in the book, is very different from the Katniss they portrayed in the movie. As well as her relationship with Peeta. They left out some very important undertones I thought. But nonetheless, the movie was quite on par with the book. No complaints really from me in that department.

Now I'm reading this:

^such a fun book.....let me know what you think :)

i concur with Invisible Monsters and Diary :).....i need to read his latest about the little girl in hell

Do you use ebooks? I can pm it to you if you do

or he could just google <INSERT BOOK TITLE HERE>.pdf :laughing:

not yet....but soon....i'll probably get my tablet or kindle by the end of the month....i'm gonna grab this from the library for my little Disney trip.....figure it will be fun to read but not quite as enthralling as the next Song of Ice and Fire book

thanks for the offer....i'm sure i'll be taking you up on these soon :)

hurrr hurrr hurr!!! Except that doesn't always work, especially nowadays assface

You really should get one, seriously they are the best. When you do, let me know and I'll send you the link to my collaborative library

No way, .mobi is the ONLY way to go.

Do it, I just got the kindle touch and it's amazing.

You probably have about 9,000,000 books that I would want. You need to hook me up :thumb:

the touch is the one i've decided on....just found myself in a little financial rut.....and have to pull myself out of it before i spend money on stuff i don't absolutely need....should be back to normal at the end of the month

u got it dood

Does the Kindle Touch have the same shine-less screen appearance as the regular Kindle?
