I'm currently reading, You Killed Me First, by John Marrs. It is a Psychological Thriller. "Three women. Three smouldering secrets. Who will make it out alive?"

 

[Smithy]

I have not read books for around 10 years.
I have not got the patience to sit still anymore.

You should get back on the book train! It's great for mental health in my opinion.

I quit reading books when e-books came out. If you count e-books the same as other books, then I would say The Lord of the Rings Trilogy, and seeing Peter Jackson's films. While the films were great, he left out a lot of my favorite parts.

Paper books are better for the brain, but I guess that works too!

Why do you think that paper books are better for the brain ? I always used to read paper books, but now my eyesight is not as good, and the print is too small for me to read without squinting a lot; so i read ebooks where i can adjust the size of the print and read comfortably again.

The programmers of Kindle and other such e-book programs would put a curse on you for saying that...

I agree with Yvonne... In order for me to be able to read them, books would have to be printed in extraordinarily large fonts, which would make just about any book, even an extremely short one, far too large for me to handle. I can barely lift my Tea cup when it's full...

I think they specially make books in large fonts, but I don't think they're that common. I'd just enlarge the font on the kindle.

I now just read online hooked up to tv. Short articles on todays happenings or history and of course communicating with y'all.

They do. Just not in the size I would need to read. But that was my point... You can't enlarge the fonts in a paper book.

Very true.

Is it any good so far?

A while back I finally finished a book by Henry Kissinger called Ending the Vietnam War. Now I am reading Grandma Gatewood's Walk by Ben Montgomery.
