Hey guys!
Sorry it's been so long since I posted. I have been pretty busy with my new job and just having some good old summer fun. That, of course, has involved lots of reading, so you will see that I have just bombarded you with new reviews. I hope you enjoy! I also hope that perhaps out of my reviews you find a good book you'd like to give a try :)
Things are going pretty good for me right now! I got a job at a bookstore (very fitting) and am loving it (for more than just the discount on books, although that really is both a blessing and a curse). Not only so, but with my birthday money I also picked up two kobos. Yes, you read that right. Two. However, I am not as crazy as I sound! I got a Kobo Arc because there was a sweet employee deal and I really wanted a good little tablet. However, I tried reading on it, and I didn't really like it. I don't want to stare at a screen for hours when I'm reading a good book. I then became aware that the Kobo Mini was going on sale to make room for new models. So, I picked up one of those for just $50 at Chapters! I have yet to read a whole book on it yet, but I tell ya, it's truly amazing. It's just like looking at paper and ink! I'm really excited to give it a go (and you can't go wrong for just $50).
Don't get me wrong, though. I love my Kobo Arc. It is a great little tablet, and you can't go wrong with the price it's at now (up to $100 off!). I am constantly surfing the web on it and watching videos. It's really great. I would definitely recommend it (or any other 7 inch android tablet, really!) Although if you get an Arc, it's a good idea to install something like Nova Launcher from the Google Play store because it allows you to do a lot more than the Kobo launcher.
I just started reading Déja Dead by Kathy Reichs (not on my Mini sadly, but just regular ol' paper :P). I didn't know that the TV BONES is based on her novels! The things you learn in a bookstore. Having found that out, I had to give the books a try. I'll let you know what I think ;)
