Ok, but do you take you kindle to the library?
If you're asking me, I don't have a kindle. We're a nook/Sony family, but we have nothing against kindles. However, no I don't take my nook to my personal library. I don't dawdle in there, and I'm usually out before my nook has had a chance to go to sleep. My husband does not take his Sony in there, but he's been known to sit and work out a Sudoku puzzle in there.

There are all kinds of high fibre foods out there so you don't need to be in there long enough to read. no wonder the bowel cancer rate is so high. have any of you folks heard of vegetables?

I meant newspapers on my Kobo . To refine my previous post I will take my reader with me if I was already reading, but I don't actually go and get it for a trip .

Rarely. I already have enough other reading material there.

If the first toilet is in use and I must use the one in the bathroom: never.

That's not why I'm in there so long. With young twin girls and a dog in the house, it's the only place I can lock the door and have a little "me" time ().

Even then, someone's constantly knocking on the door.....

Even one page read is more than I would have done if I hadn't taken it with me! Though, usually, I'm not even in there long enough to read one page of a comic (which is my usual literature on the toilet).

Kenny,

I definitely have taken my eReader to the library.

And I too would like to have tablets in various rooms. I've even thought about bolting a tablet into the wall in the "library" set to display all my Calibre books. I have way too much time to day-dream, clearly.

This reminds me of the great sitting vs standing debate ... I was quite shocked when I found another way exists.
