Nice, thanks for the detailed info.

Never heard of the book or the movie. Sounds interesting though, will check it out.

This used to be recommended a lot on reddit, back in the day, going to keep my expectations in check when I get around to them now.

How are you liking the Revenger series? Alastair Reynolds have been mentioned many times but I have yet to read any of his works.

Ah cool. Amari series looks interesting. Going to order the first book to see if my kid likes it.

The author mentions it as Artemis Fowl meets Men in Black. Have you read Artemis Fowl series? I am wondering which should I get for him first. Which of these is better for younger audience?

How’s the 1177 B.C.: The Year Civilization Collapsed to read? Easy to read or somewhat dense?

Yeah, kind of same here. Wouldn’t categorize us as poor, but yeah, couldn’t afford tons of new books. Older books in my collection are all used books, though now I go for new books.

Funnily, I have never understood the smell part of it, even though whenever I mention liking physical books, it comes up. I just like the physical feel of the book. Getting the subconscious feel of how much I have read and how much is left by just looking at the pages. Just the overall feel of it.

Yours might even be older than me. I have Sony PRS-350. It was released in 2010 (and when I bought it) PRS-505 was apparently released in 2008, don’t know when you bought it though.

And yeah, the official leather cover (bought separately) has broken down, during the time when I wasn’t using it. Device itself works like a charm though.

Yeah, I don’t care about much about how you read, it’s so rare for me to meet people who love reading. So after the initial “I prefer physical books” thing, we just move on to what we read and like.

Haha, I am one of those people. Never thought about like that. Though I go with “physical” not “real”.

E-book readers are great. I prefer to read physical books, but for some of the older books that are difficult to find locally, I just get the ebook.

Still have a 15 old Sony Pocket reader, without wifi or any bells and whistles. Still work like a charm though, and battery life is still pretty good. Though, I didn’t use it much for about 6-7 years in the middle, and then light use for 3-4 years, but still, something like that to last 15 years, and still keep working is so nice!

Don’t know what you are going through, but wish you good luck and hope things improve for you soon.

S. A. Chakraborty’s The Deavabad Trilogy is also great, and has a female protagonist. I am looking forward to starting her next series.

Yeah, I can see the omnibus at amazon. Thanks for the info!

You are going through Deathlands books pretty fast. Are you a fast reader or are they short books?

Prose or graphic novel?

I can’t find White Sand or Dark One graphic novel at any local shop. May just have to order from amazon.

Ooooh. I think that’s the only H. P. Lovecraft “Complete Fiction” book that’s actually a “complete fiction”. For instance, this one isn’t actually complete: , which is I went the ebook route.

You don’t like horror? Or don’t like Lovecraftian horror? Or just don’t like these stories specifically?

Thanks for the info, will check them out.

Have you read other books in the Lincoln Rhyme series? I only know it from The Bone Collector movie, which I liked. If they are anything like that, they can be an interesting series to read.

I have heard good things about Slow Horses, haven’t read it myself though.

With my luck, if I get prepared for those, we would get completely different apocalypse, like Vampire one, or maybe Evil Robots.

Ah, that early morning is my gaming time, if I sleep on time, otherwise that’s just sleeping time. Other than that, don’t really use a smart phone, just read a book for few mins here and there whenever I have some time.
