Huh. So, Amazon seems to have a shiny new thing for ebooks...A free Kindle application for the computer. Of course, being the girl with roughly seven bookcases worth of books in storage and a dire reading issue* lately, this is seeming like it may be a good idea to get my hands on some newer books than what's on Sacred Texts or Project Gutenberg. While I much prefer the feel of paper and ink under my fingertips, space is at a premium so technology** may be the right track for me to go right now?


*I've read all of the brain candy in my room seventeen times over and after a year of reading exclusively textbooks, I'd like to read something a bit lighter for a bit. Seriously, I'm currently rereading Mercedes Lackey books to satisfy my need to not read about the digestive tract or anatomy texts.

**I know, I know...mixing me and technology is probably not the best idea I've ever had, but beggars can't be choosers. Much. ;)

When I've been in money diet times, and need things to read, I hit the thrift stores.
It doesn't address the space problem, but I've found books even cheaper than Eprices.
