I've just started looking into getting a Kindle. And then discovered there is Barnes and Nobles version, the Nook. They seem similar. I want one because it says it is easy to read and lightweight. Sometimes when reading a hardback...

wayz12 Check if your local library works with Overdrive.com or Netlibrary.com. If it does, then you will be able to download e-books to your Nook.

If you are a frequent traveler who has to travel a lot for your work throughout the year and if you have the bad or good habit of constantly reading on the go, but at the same time, not keen on lugging books with you, I think you...

wayz12 I'm a fan of Gena Showalter's Lords of the Underworld (LOTU) series. I think the concept of tortured warriors burdened with demons is quite original. I also find her choices of heroines quite suited to my taste. I enjoy reading romance novels with strong,...

wayz12 Well, LKH's Anita Blake books are classified as urban fantasy. So if fantasy is not your thing, then it will not be to your liking.
