Funny screensaver coincidence

I finished a book, deleted it and opened an Agatha Christie novel I had recently downloaded. I read a bit, and then put it to sleep. Guess what screensaver then appeared?

Of course, Agatha Christie.

The same thing happened to me, same author too. Maybe the Kindle is paying attention to what we're reading..... I finished 1984 the other day, if Big Brother appears on my Kindle I might freak out.

That's pretty hilarious, really, and who knows, maybe one day Amazon will actually use that as a certain form of advertising.
