I finished catching fire and have now moved onto
The series is sweet! enjoyable. Makes me excited for the movie.... However it's nothing ground breaking or revolutionary or thought provoking. Just a good action book.
Just finished the Chronicles of Vladimir Tod series the last book was insane I have a list of series I have to read but maybe ill read World War Z next

It's creeped me out in parts. Really good so far.
It's about this kid whose grandpa always tells him this absurd stories, but he has pictures that go along with teh stories so the kid grows up believing him. But as he gets older he realizes how ridiculous they are.... so he stops believing. Well the Grandpa is afraid these monsters have come to kill him, and the kid things he is going crazy, but something happens to the grandpa.... So the kid goes to track down his grandpas life and see how much is fact and how much is fiction. It's really good.. .and the book has all these old time photos that are really creepy... like the book cover but creepier.
I know there was a discussion here once about e-readers/tablets. Are they any good and which is the best? Thinking of buying my wife one for Xmas Why are there so many kindles? There's like a Kindle Fire and Kindle Colour etc!? What do u recommend please?

look up reviews online.
I have a Nook color. I like it. However I'd kinda like to get a e-ink device because I feel like it would be less straining on my eyes. the e-ink ones are cheaper.
The whole "Internet on the tablet" thing was great at first but then it would distract me from reading and then got an iPhone, so it was sort of useless to me. I got it thinking I could use it for school, textbooks and such, but my books are too obscure to be in ebook format.

Okay. Once my course list is released, I shall give it to you and if you can find them, then awesome. Actually, this semester is slightly less obscure. Russian, Ottoman, and Samurai.

no promises... but I have a few sites that have ridiculously obscure college texts.

What site was it?
Im guessing demonoid. requires being into torrents. I have another site though that you might be interested in that doesnt work in torrents. I dont use it often but my wife does and loves it.
