    Fantastic book, one I enjoyed immensely!

    Got an iPad, Is it a waste to get an ereader

    Stick with the iPad. It's not that much larger than a Kindle, I don't see how the size will make much difference. (This coming from a fellow gadget addict.)

    Any more Fifty Shades-style books?

    I have to throw in Anne Rice's Exit to Eden. And The Story of O is a classic.

    Classified Section

    Used book stores seem to be going away (or at least in my area they are), and I HATE ebay. I'm sure a lot of us have boxes of books they'd like to sell/trade off. Perhaps a classified section to help with such?

    iBooks Censoring? World War Z

    I have a hardcopy of World War Z, and an iBooks version. I just finished reading the iBooks version. Now, in the hardcopy version, I recall a chapter where a woman is describing going to China to illegally adopt a baby. While there, the warehouse is raided by police, and it's inferred that...

    Apple sued for ebook price fixing

    Good - it's the one thing I HATE about iBooks - the prices are way too high.

    Erik Larson: In the Garden of Beasts

    I'm currently reading "In the Garden of Beasts" by Erik Larson, the story of William Dodd and his family, who were the American ambassadors to Germany in 1933. Amazing story about an amazingly naive and oblivious man and his overly promiscuous daughter as Germany succumbs to insanity. I've...

    Where to start with Stephen King?

    I love his early works (pre-Tommyknockers), and his newer stuff is somewhat hit or miss for me. I HATE his politics, and the more I read his older stuff, the more little things I see that bother me. But, he's a very talented writer, and used to be one of my favorite horror authors.

    Jack Ketchum & Lucky McKee: The Woman

    I loved Off-Season and Offspring, but I never understood why they did a movie of the sequel and not the first, and much better, book. Anyway, I picked up The Woman on my iPad, I'll read it tonight.

    E-book sales top paperbacks for first time

    It's sad. I was thinking about the loss of so many Borders, my favorite book store, when it kinda dawned on me, why should I care? I use an eReader for almost everything now. Publishing seems to be the next industry about to be made obsolete, with countless people put out of work, and I'm not...

    New Authors to try

    F. Paul Wilson's Repairman Jack series. He's about 14 or 15 books in now. For the past month I've been blasting through these books, and they ROCK! Good, fun, adventure books with a great supernatural backdrop.

    What is the cheapest e-book reader on the market?

    I've heard of it, I'm not familiar with it. I've yet to play with one. What can it do that my iPad can't do?

    What is the cheapest e-book reader on the market?

    I'm a gadget lover, so I'll have to look into it. I jumped on the iPad when they came out, since I already had the iPhone.

    What is the cheapest e-book reader on the market?

    I'm not familiar with the Android, and I did say, I think, as in, my opinion. :whistling:
