WHY KINDLES ARE DANGEROUS...

It's happened, people. 

I can't stop.

I have become hopelessly addicted to hitting that little wee toggle button that's almost too small to even push..... I have been hitting it over and over to buy more books.

GAH!

Oh, I know, what you're thinking... DUH, Lisa, Kindle just makes it SOOOOO EASY to buy books, didn't you KNOW? 

I totally knew.

But don't care... must buy more books....

I think I have purchased 5 books thus far?  Not to mention the few physical books that magically found themselves in my hands and transported me somehow against my will to the check out and into my car?  Then they very craftily hid themselves underneath a pile of books that has been in some configuration or another on my nightstand so hubby won't see? 

Sigh.....

There is no hope.


BUT HERE'S WHAT I BOUGHT!!!

Craig Ferguson American on Purpose

So far, it's pretty good, and much as I had expected.  I ALMOST ran out and bought the physical book yesterday, until I accidentally noticed that I already had the Kindle version... Good God.

Between The Bridge and the River
By Craig Ferguson

Okay, so I suspect I have a theme going on, or an unhealthy obsession with said Late Late Night talk show host, who I happen to watch every single solitary night come hell or high water. 

I have heard good things about this one, and I read my "sample" which is really Kindle's way of saying, "Just TRY it, kid, you'll like it."  whilst handing it to you from its seedy little trench coat.

Afflicted Girls by Suzy Witten

This is a story about the Salem Witch trials, with a twist, apparently.  The author contacted me last year to see if I wanted to purchase the book for review, and I looked at it, but was so busy with other things I didn't at the time.  Not that I'm any LESS busy, but Kindle just HAD to have it, and THEN.... 

So now I have a grand total of 5 books to read on Kindle, and I STILL have piles and piles of physical books on various shelves and tables all over my house.   In fact (and I can't believe I  am going to admit to this), it's possible that I have a book BUYING problem as opposed to a book READING problem.. which is not nearly as noble or cool.  My dream job would be to work at a book store and just buy the books, you know ordering them in and then it would have to be ME that gets to open the boxes and then smell them... I mean, take them out and stack them in their glorious piles. 

Ugh.

Somebody stop me.

And speaking of stopping people...

DOES ANYONE KNOW HOW TO GET A JAPANESE OR KOREAN SPAMMER WHO SENDS ME MULTIPLE SPAMMY MESSAGES THAT I CAN'T READ IN MY COMMENTS SECTIONS?  And one even had english porno words sprinkled through-out. 

Ugh... again.

ANYway, oh Kindle, you came and you gave without taking, and you sent me away, Oh Kindle....
