She always had a book near, as did my grandmother.As an avid reader, what's your opinion on e-books? I didn't think it would be as good as holding a real book but it's actually not bad. Amazon Prime is my go-to when I want something quickly and will read on my phone in the Kindle app. Just finished the Atlantis Gene trilogy by A.G. Riddle.
I have a nook, but to me, there is nothing like an actual book.
I will read anything, as long as it gets my attention in the first few pages. If not, I try to struggle through it, or I just give up and set it aside, to either try again later, or pass it on to someone else.
Yeah, that includes trashy paranormal romance books. But those I prefer the series ones, but I actually like the character buildup, and the action. Shelley Laurenston (?) for example. Also very funny.
I read a lot of metaphysical books, and alternative history books, I guess they might be called? (Conspiratorial?) I love discussing them as well.
I am currently reading Anunnaki: Gods no more. (Struggle a bit with all the "who bred with who, keeping the names straight)
I loved all the recommendations I found at ATS, and would love some more.
I have even been able to read a few of the books written by authors over there, and help edit one on a pre-read.
(for some reason, I see a mistake, spelling, space for a missing word, ect. and just can't let it go. LOL)
So, I hope there are others that love books, and maybe want to discuss them as well, or recommend some, or heck, just complain about them.
Atlantis Gene
Given a choice? I would pick a physical book. But having the ability to basically pick any book, and have it in seconds, I read about 80% on my nook or kindle app.

I hope that link works.
I have 4 published and two waiting for an editor. I lost the last editor because I didn't get the jabby jab. Lol.
More than happy to help any authors on here.
