    Kindle is ****ing awesome! Definitely worth the investment. Already onto my second book this week. Seems like I'm reading faster than ever.......

    But maybe that's just because the last 5 books I read were 1000 page behemoths.

    Agent to the Stars by John Scalzi was awesome. Great sci-fi/comedy read.

    Does anyone have any experiences with the Boxwave Marquee cover for kindle? Seems the best combination of value and tough protection as far as I can find.

    Have you had this validated by a Guinness World Records adjudicator? If so a genuine first.


    Currently reading volume 1 of Harry S Trumans Presidential memoirs.... Picked up a first edition copy (1955 i think) for £2.... Don't get that feeling of history with your ****ing Kindle

    I'm torn, do I start ASOIAF now and get engrossed in it for however long it takes to read the first four books, or should I read the other books I bought first and then get stuck into it?

    Got a Kindle today. It's so ****ing good. Just makes you want to read and read. Immensely enjoyable to use as well.

    Thank you CW.

    ATM I'm watching question time and I can't help having a Tolstoy style view about all the panelists and questioners in the audience. Just like Tolstoy treats Kutuzov's adjutants and generals as opinionated glory hunters trying to prove their brilliant war skills, I get the impression that these people on question time are opinionated glory hunters trying to show they can run the country and prove how smart they are. All the while noone seems to really care about doing anything more than putting themselves forward...

    Grrr, This doesn't half get my gander up!
