amazon kindle





My family went on holiday for a week and left me at home with my brother, cat, dog and Christian Grey... 
I didn't want to read this book because of the overblown hype surrounding it. It has also received a lot of criticism, about it being poorly written and been dubbed the 'mummy porn' book. But I myself really really enjoyed the Grey trilogy, reading the 3 books in 4 days - would of been sooner if I didn't have to work - I have since started reading the books again. I have read them on the Amazon Kindle, purchased via Argos making the most of my staff discount! It is actually my Mums Kindle. I really like the concept of it and think its an amazing product, it fits perfectly in my handbag and is brilliant for reading in bed as I tend to lay on my side then switch over, it is difficult to perfect this balance with a book. I did find I wanted to touch the screen to turn the pages after many hours of iPod/iPhone/iPad swiping it is just second nature to run my finger across the screen and expect it to turn the page. But alas it didn't happen, I hope to purchase the Kindle Touch in time for my holiday in September, don't think I can wait till Christmas for one.

  1. I wanted to read that book after seeing all the hype, but as soon as I went on Amazon and read all of the terrible reviews I was pulled away. I don't really understand how something can be a best seller and have such horrible reviews? anyways, i guess some people liked it which is good! i might still have to pick up a copy to see for myself.
