Yes, a Kindle (although I have one) is a horrible instrument upon which to try and read. There is something about that "dumb" blinking full pages ahead that seems to contribute to missing so much. That is why I try to convert all my books to WORD format, and read them on the "scrolling" screen of a computer... if I don't happen to have a hard copy of the book.

Ben, "who?" LOL (But, "Thank you.")
All joking aside, that would be a very typical response you might get from the average-person-on-the-street interview. Have you ever watched any of them that they do at some college campuses? Sad, indeed.

I rarely read fiction. Ever. My shelves are completely non-fiction. My teachers used to try and convince me to read fantasy and all that.

When I was a teen I really enjoyed the "Cirque Du Freak" book series. They are short and highly entertaining. It's about a boy who discovers this secret underground carnival and ends up getting turned into a vampire and having some crazy adventures. Very well written and it has one of the best endings.. I'd like to re-read them at some point. It's a horror saga and really well done if you like that kind of thing.
Vladimir Nabokov is another wonderful writer if you're a little older. His controversial book "Lolita" is a favorite of mine. It's considered one of the greatest books ever published or published in the last century. The way he crafts language is pure poetry. But it's a very dark book and probably better for older teens, not younger ones. "Go Ask Alice" might be a good one for teens. It's allegedly a true diary of a girl who went on a downward spiral into drugs and other bad things...It's a dark, captivating tale, but a good book to read as it shows the dangers of that lifestyle.

I've heard of them and the very sad results; never thought it worth depressing myself that far by watching them lol. My sister is going to a physical college for a couple of semesters to finish up her degree, and some of the stories she tells about the other people...the ignorance is horrifying.
