Tina, that is a great advantage of having the Kindle. I didn't have to rush off to Costco. I just used the Buy With One Click button at Amazon and the books appear on the Kindle. Dangerous too as I have now too many books to be read. When I was buying print I might get two or three books at a time. Now I end up buying more. Guess that is Amazon's plan. Hehe.



It was just.. not something I like to read. I like easy things that don't require much thinking :P


And here I was thinking I had an addiction! :)
You'll never be out of reading material. I have well over 300 & can anyone tell me why I keep downloading more??!! Oh yea...that's right...I have a slight addiction.. :)


I have to read descriptions or else I won't buy unless it happens to be by my fav author. I can understand if they're freebies, but if it's more than 2.99 or so, I just can't do it. I'm still unemployed & I just can't afford to download everything. I like your idea, Louise-Lesley, but just can't do it. :)

Poor student here :P
I only have about 50 or so bought ones and those are over the last year and a lot of them are in series that I know I will love.

OHHHH! Ok, I gotcha! That makes sense to me. I was thinking you must have unlimited funds to download everything...LOL....we poor students/unemployed folks love them freebies!!! LOL


I did the same thing!! Just give me Amazon gift cards and I'll be in 7th heaven!! I love all kinds of gift cards anyway!

I downloaded that one myself, but haven't had a chance to read it yet. Hope it's a good book. Enjoy!

So far, sweet, maybe a little predictable, but a very nice read.




Would you be willing to lend this book?
And book 1 if you have it?

I had to LOL at your last line. I also like easy things that don't require much thinking. Although I do enjoy a good mystery. I'm just not a 'deep thinker' and avoid books where I have to find the 'deeper meaning'. Nope, I'm like a waterbug, happily skating across the surface of life (well, books).



Christmas at Harrrington's is a wonderful book! I just finished it and now I'm reading The Bronze Horseman and My Life in France.

HAHA.
Yes. Completely. I love a good mystery now that makes me think but that isn't the deep philosophical kind of thinking or the deep thinking back to my school day English lessons.

I've got Christmas at Harrington's too. Hope I get to it this month. Am reading Maine right now and I suspect I'll be getting notified to pick up In the Garden of Beasts: Love, Terror, and an American Family in Hitler's Berlin by next week.

That was pre-Kindle for me!
I just bought The Art of Racing in the Rain for 3.99 and devoured that book. I told my kid that I was reading a book from the perspective of a dog and she told me that is the worst book for me as I already have anthropomorphised (sp) my dogs! (Did I write that correctly? Sheesh!)
One day I hope that I'll pop in here and see someone posting my own book. :-)

Now I'm reading Return of the Rose and The Bronze Horseman




I've started reading an old favorite, Murder on the Orient Express. Since I'm writing a variant of a locked-room mystery (a group of whitewater rafters stuck in a remote river canyon with a killer, in my case), I thought I'd return to this locked-room mystery written by a master, for inspiration.
