Welcome to Mobileread.
Mobileread is a delightful paradox. It greatly increases the number of books easily available to you, and at the same time cuts down on the amount of time you spend reading them...
An interesting choice of screen name. Do you also "inhabit dry papery areas such as old books and newspaper stacks"?

A few hours on this site, and now I am going crazy with the downloads. And look at this, I registered :O and now I am introducing myself! Why oh why, did you create this forum and this site and allow people to rediscover the conversations that have been bound forever in the dead trees in an entirely new way? Things will never be the same again...
Not one for fiction, I have been gleefully downloading the books Patricia has been hand-creating and sharing. Patricia - a huge thanks and appreciation for all your hardwork.
To all the others, thanks for reading this.
Namaste,
Silverfish
