If you come to Hay don't bring your Kindle

Sorry, I was feeling very grumpy yesterday. Much better today!

 

I almost exclusively use ebooks these days

by buying from USA stores in sales I rarely pay above £2 for books which are £13 in real book format ( excluding postage)

that said have one more real book coming (sovereign by ted dekker) since its part 3 of a trilogy I had 2 of already in hardback

that's the series I told you about before Zigs , whole world dead and unaware of it :p

Would you feel more at home with it if you had one of these?

I agree with you 100% ... so much so I am answering besides giving a 'like'. I have spent a lot of time this winter getting rid of books to the charities ... but that takes time and here (living in the country) quite a bit of fuel because there are not charity shops on every corner like in the UK sadly.

I also now read about a book a week, which I never did with a book, and I get almost all of mine free (I have to order from .com and not .co.uk).

I did pick up my two aforementioned books at the PO today ... one a Pilates book with spiral binding ... excellent ... cost me 5p plus £4.05 postage but worth it!

 

More like what one can't say. I'd actually find one of those devices useful if it was Bluetooth enabled. But this is getting away from the subject of Kindles, so ...

 

One lump or two, Vicar?
One lump is better than no lumps?
A lump in the hand is worth two in the bush?

I'll shut up now

 

You started it!
