Kindle Paperwhite
Over the weekend I decided to treat myself to a Kindle Paperwhite. I did already have a Sony eReader but it had been playing up lately so I decided it was time to go for a Kindle.
Once I’ve used it for the first time I’ll post a review of what I think of it. So far I’ve just linked it to my Amazon account and downloaded a couple of books.

The third book I read was “If I Stay” by Gayle Forman. I’d seen a few adverts for the film of this, which has not long been released in cinemas, and whilst looking for some new books to download on my eReader this popped up and I thought I’d give it a try.

Sycamore Row – John Grisham
Next up was John Grisham’s “Sycamore Row”. This is the sequel to “A Time to Kill”, which I have also read but not yet reviewed as I read it before I started doing this blog. I guess I’ll have to have a re-read so I can do a post here.
