You can probably get them from amazon.
I'm going to check for the radio times ones.

Not me. I still like my proper books.
i like the feel of actual paper books, but not the space they take up as they accumulate in my home. years ago i went through and got rid of anything that i didn't use on a regular basis, it makes things more "open" in my home (more open space) and easier to keep tidy.

A Kindle is a brand of electronic reader that you can download electronic books onto: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amazon_Kindle It's like an iPad or other computer tablet but only for electronic books, though some may offer games and web access.There are various Kindle models with different features.

Personally I prefer an actual book to an e-reader like the Kindle.

I also prefer books but there are some books that I want to read that I can only get on Kindle. However I just saw the price so there's nothing to talk about any more. Hey Ho?!

Still reading James Rollins "Innocent Blood".  It's marginally better than the first novel. I'm about 25% through and haven't skimmed yet.  Hopefully that continues!

I'm just about to start Just One Evil Act by Elizabeth George which will take time to read as it's so thick.

I am reading 'Wild' by Cheryl Strayed. I have a big pile of books waiting for me when I finish this one.

i see your question was answered before i got back. yeah, kindle books cost less than paper books usually. and when you buy a kindle book, the title gets listed on your amazon account in the kindle books you purchased. this means that if you decide to delete the book from your computer kindle app or phone kindle app, you can re-download it any time you want because you already bought the book. you might delete books from your phone or computer kindle app in order to not take up as much space/memory.

i have an actual kindle reader and i also have the kindle app on my computer. most of the time i read on my computer, but if i wanted to sit outside and read during the warmer weather i could.

Can this thread be pinned?  It's popular and it keeps getting lost.
I know. I keep trying to bring it back when it goes to another page, just to keep it on the front of the forum. I really like this thread, so many great ideas!

I have actually started reading Jackson Galaxy's book - Catification, and im psyched because today at the dollar store i randomly came across a book called "the story of oscar". It had a pic of a cat on the front so naturally i picked it up to see what it was about and here its about that cat that lives in the nursing home and can sense when someone is going to die! i cant wait to start reading it. i enjoy reading alot and want to try to make time for it more often. ill go thru my phases where i'll read alot and then ill stop for a while.
