I'm actually reading The Time Travellers Wife as an e-book. I must admit, it's not the same as feeling the paper under my fingers but it is far more convenient for reading whilst commuting.

Plus, they're a lot more user friendly. You can alter the text size so it suits your needs, I don't have to use a bookmark to remember where I'd got to, and no matter where I am I've got the book with me.

Not sure about it though bit slushy for my tastes.....but only few pages in.

:?


I'm a couple of chapters in... I know what you mean about slushy. That's okay once in a while, but not every book. The language seems pretty descriptive, and the danish translation 's okay (can't always rely on that).

It's okay, probably not a book I would have chosen myself. I'm about half way through.

I'll be honest, I'm struggling to motivate myself to keep going with it.

Just as long as the next book isn't Blair's autobiography...
