I wonder which book wins. I have to be honest (I'm excited!! I haven't been in a book club before unless sharing insights with friends count. lol) If John Green's TFIOS wins, I expect to know things I haven't noticed before when I first read it. It usually happens to me during re-reads, that's why I reread books that I love as much as I can (and discuss it as much as I can also!)

As I told someone the other day, perhaps my next iPad should be a Surface Pro. The iPad's idea of multi-tasking is to be able to switch quickly between apps. The Windows idea is to have more than one app open on the screen simultaneously; a much more useful setup. But unless you're watching movies, the screen ratio of the Surface is awkward. |

Don't get the Surface! I have the RT and it finally died on me and let me tell you, the Samsung Galaxy Tab 4 has the same Multi-Window thing that the Surface does in addition to over 1 million apps from the Google Play store vs. a measly 100,000 apps in the Windows Store. The cord for the Surface is very poorly made as I've gone through 3 in less than two years.

You shouldn't have to upgrade to get the features that are touted!! I'm sticking with Android.
