Reading The Twelve by Justin Cronin. Book 2 of The Passage trilogy. Around 180 or so pages in, and we are still in the past, the story is interesting, so reading about these characters, but I am still not sure if it will have any effect in the future / present, or it's just for world building. I am now invested enough now to see where it goes though.

What about all of you? What have you been reading or listening to lately?

Yeah, I've read on my phone for years. It's nice because it's always with me, so if I'm ever stuck waiting, I can pick up where I left off. Holding a phone to read, though, does get uncomfortable on both the eyes and hands after a while (I often binge read lol), so figured it was time to get a proper e-reader.

an e-Reader hits that sweet spot for an even nicer paper-ish screen and the intentionality of a book, while still having digital convenience.

Yep,, that's what I'm after :) I'll probably do similar and leave the wifi off unless I'm syncing new books.
