"I received a kindle as a gift and I don't like it even for travelling.
Nothing compares to a real book,the feel,smell,even the page turning,all adds to the experience.
"
Very true. Feels more satisfying somehow |

Yes; I always have several books waiting to be read and although I can see the convenience of electronic books especially when travelling read paper books, although the space needed becomes more of a problem than the cost; I have about 3,000 books.
I mainly read history of various sorts but also occasional novels and other things. |

I think I may have read a couple of his. I will look out for some when I finish these two. |

Yep and I go from genre to genre, although my favourite would be fantasy or regular fiction.
I may have a problem of buying more books than I can read however... |

I read avidly, mostly thrillers, always have a few on the go at once. Always on my Kindle though as i love it, i find it far easier to use because it's light, the size of the letters can be changed, no painful hands from holding a paper book.
I also got fed up of 100s and 100s of dusty paper books in my small house.
I do love childrens books in paper though. |

"Yes.
I travel a lot.
Earphones and a book and I can drown out everybody around me.
Jane Austen?"
Occasionally, but no need of late.
I just message you for the romance.

One of my favourite things to do on a day off is go book shopping. I do like a paperback for reading when travelling, but I prefer to read on the kindle app on my phone at bedtime cause I can read with the light off.
I'm currently reading Stranger In A Strange place after it was recommended be a fellow Fabber.
Anyone get sad when they finish a really good book? |

Yes! When I finished the Robin Hobb books, I felt grief. |

Reading The Wheel of Time at the mo. I bought a kindle, never used it. I like the feel of a book in my hand, getting lost in it, and I’m also a bit clumsy when I’m tired, so have dropped many a book when reading in bed…wouldn’t work with a kindle x

I've moved to audio books as they fit with my lifestyle better than reading paper books .... I like thrillers and autobiographies.
I've listened to 16 so far this year  |

"I've just got my head back into reading on my breaks at work.
Anyone else do this?
What sort of book us it?
I'm hooked on Horror at the moment "
Love a good book. Paper backs in particular.
Currently re-reading The Night Angel Trilogy by Brent Weeks.
Absolutely Epic and fast paced so easy to follow  |

A mix of paper (soft and hard back) and kindle. Currently reading the last book in The Wheel Of Time series but either fantasy, fiction/suspense or biographies. |

I am an avid reader. Just read Insatiable by Daisy Buchanan in about 3.5 hours for a bit of easy reading.
I’m halfway through Anne Brontë’s The Tenant of Wildfell Hall so needed something to break it up. Only 200 pages to go!
My current recommendation though is The Storyteller by Dave Grohl. I loved it. The book is a beaut too. |
