I'm reading Lone Survivor before going to see the Hollyweird movie version.

Reading is similar - a good book is something that it almost seems impossible to set don once you become engrossed in the story and develop a relationship with a character in the book. The mind is a powerful thing and so much more fun than watching a movie - the creativity of the mind and how it depicts the images of what I read is what I find interesting.

What can you tell me about Huraki Murakami? What types of books are these
I read probably 20 books for every movie I watch, seriously. I have something like 250 books in my Kindle app that I've read since I started reading Kindle books about 4 or 5 years ago. Average about one every week or so, depending.

Once I find an author I like, I'll read pretty much everything they have within reason. Amazon reviews are quite helpful in finding new authors.

I tend to do the same. But never consecutively. Maybe two books, then on to someone else for a bit.

I do 90% of my reading on my iPad these days. It's really the way to go IMHO.

Ya think?

Remember that blank stare I gave you when you told me you thought I drink too much?

That's because when you were here... I was only running about 1/2 throttle...
