RE: Do you read books?

in #tribes15 hours ago

I've been a book devourer for as long as I can remember. When I focus on reading I forget about the world, it's like a drug. Until a few years ago my readings were mainly novels, almost of any genre, but my favourite is the historical novel.

However, since I bought a Kindle with a touch screen, my reading habits have changed. Now essays predominate, especially psychology and personal development. Although right now, for example, I'm with a history one. I prefer the comfort of the ebook because I am already adapted to its dimensions and weight, I can underline passages that I then easily send to my notes app, and it allows you to save money and space. The paper has a romantic and special touch, but in my case it does not compensate for the advantages of current technology.

As for my favourite novel authors are Javier Sierra, Ken Follett, Noah Gordon, Arturo Pérez-Reverte, Matilde Asensi... almost all of them are Spanish.

It's the same for me lol.

I agree with that. It's so nice that I can now read next to my wife while she sleeps without disturbing her thanks to my kindle :-)

I've just read the last book by Ken Follett. I love the history fiction that he writes.
