I've had a very sloooow couple of reading weeks. I read in two weeks what I'd normally read in one week, or almost in one week. 8 books makes me feel like a slacker

Work has been nuts and well, the whole buying and organizing of bought books seems to take time away from the actual reading of books! I know we've all lamented that before, but couple that with my actual work going bonkers and I just haven't read enough Seems I was able to buy enough though!!!

I'm loving the new calibre feature as well - thanks apesmom!

So I decided to get my 13 y/o son an ereader for Christmas and wanted to get him a tablet reader so he can take advantage of games and (limited) internet usage as well. I was all set to get him the Fire but after reading all of the comments in this thread, I WANT THE FIRE FOR ME!!! So, does it make me a bad mom to get me the Fire and give him my PW??? I'd actually buy one for both of us but I don't think I can justify that...

I've been perfectly happy with my PW but after seeing you all talk about the Calibre Companion, I want to use it. I like it much better than the Collection Manager for the Kindles/Kindle PWs. I know CM probably does more but I can't figure out how to use it other than to just import collections from calibre and go - which is fine, but it looks like there is a lot more functionality using CC, or at least more intuitive functionality...

Not sure what I'll do at this point... prolly be a good Mom and get him the Fire and hold out for one for myself till next year sometime. :sigh:

Blossom - I hope your sister is feeling better
