Well Kindle My Timbers

It happened.

I actually held (and read from ~shudders~) from a Kindle.

And I liked it (gasp).

Good thing I have over 60 alot of books waiting for me on my bookshelf, an equal amount or more on my 'to read/library list (not to mention zero in dispensable cash) to deter an impulse buy.

It all began after I finished my book while at the beach. I hated to buy another book when I have so many at home waiting for me. Then my girlfriend whipped out her Kindle. On the beach. And showed me her list. She's my go to girl when I am searching for a good read and she knows that I've been a wee bit very resistant to the whole electronic book thing. I worked in a library for three years in college, my mom is a librarian ... I just love the feel, the smell of a real book. Call me crazy.

And then I looked at her list.

I could begin reading any book I wanted. Right then and there.

Oh boy.

So I did.

And when I got home I promptly went out and bought the book (too long of a wait list at the library ... see I am an instant gratification girl after all). Oh yeah ... finihsed that and now on to book two of the series (so much for pinching pennies).

Then to make it worse ... we started talking books and I recommended a few from our TTPT reads. Again, on the beach, logged in and added them to her favorites. Just.like.that. No more forgetting what was a 'good read'.

Well Kindle my timbers ... I'm a little rattled!

What about you? Have your timbers been Kindled?
