Hello everyone
Just a quick note to say hello to everyone.

I've been loitering on these forums since I pre-ordered my Kindle 3 a month or so back and figured I really ought to post something.

Since I received the Kindle I've hardly put it down! My reading has really picked up and I'm loving it.

I've already picked up some great tips from these boards, and I'm hoping the reading recommendations section and book club will encourage me to try books that I'd never normally try.

So again, hello everyone

Hey there Cardos, welcome to MR... though I suppose there's no need for that since you're already a regular participant

Hope you find yourself a lot of things to fill that K3 up with - I'm also looking forward to receiving one soon.

What sort of genre are you into ?

Paul.

Thanks for the welcome.

I primarily read fantasy, but I'm trying to diversify. Saying that however, I just started Steven Erikson's Malazan Book of the Fallen Series. I'm enjoying the first book immensley and as there appears to be another eight and one forthcoming, they'll keep me busy for a while.

I plan to try and squeeze a book of a different genre between each of the series. I have The Help by Kathryn Stockett waiting to be read, and hopefully I'll get a few MR book club recommendations in there too, having recently finished Lee Child's Killing Floor

Perhaps once I've finished those I'll get a chance to try other things before George R R Martin releases A Dance with Dragons.

So much to read, so little time.

Wonderful isn't it!

This is my first eReading device. It may sound a bit weird, but I'd held off making the switch from paper books because I loved the smell of them
Thankfully though I've taken to eReading like a duck to water, and I've got stacks of paper books if I ever feel the need for a crafty sniff!

Welcome! I love your profile pic btw.

I too share your love of the paperback, but I am crossing every finger and toe that Santa bring my K3 this year!

Take care.
