I guess you are talking about books for Kindle :-D

I'm an old fashioned girl where books are concerned - I love physical ones. The feel, the smell of them, and the way you can flick through them. Going to a book shelf and browsing through them is one of my big pleasures in life. :-D :-D

An hour spent in a book shop is my idea of heaven .......... well,one of my ideas! ;-) ;-) ;-)

I have to admit GiN I used to love doing that, especially at Borders In Speke Liverpool (closed now) ......You could sit on the leather loungers with a cuppa and read to your hearts content......

Booooooooooooooooooooooooooo :-D :-D :-D

A lot of bookshops have closed down, sadly. I used to love Borders in Norwich for just that reason. Now, all there seems to be left is Waterstones and W H Smiths, though there are some others in Cambridge, such as Heffers, and some lovely ones in London.
I love to look on Amazon for reviews and ideas of what to get next :-D :-D

Hya Jem :-D :-D <3 <3 - how has your day been? :-D

Hiya GinN :-D :-D <3

Not too bad, thanks GinN :-)
I haven't been too well, but I'm ok :-)

Not long finished 2 hours of something beginning with i which I don't think we are allowed to mention of here :-D :-D

My daughter never i***s! :-S I don't know how she manages it. I have to most days :-| :-D

Hiyaaa Jemikins :-D :-D <3 <3....hope you are feeling a little better <3

Hope you are feeling better Jem :-) :-) <3

I recommend a bit of therapeutic knitting ;-) ;-) :-D

Hiya Mers :-D :-D :-D <3

Hope you are feeling better now <3

How many squares are you going to have to do GiN :-0 :-0

:-D :-D :-D@ GinN

I'll do as many as it takes me to get fed up with it, Mersey :-D :-D :-D

They measure about 8 inches, so I will need quite a few :-D - nearly finished number 8 ;-) ;-)

Are the stitches all matching GinN, or do you vary them?

Jems meds seem to be kicking in thanks :-D <3

GiN keep clicking :-D :-D ;-)

I'm glad to hear it Mers :-) <3

GinN,
You ought to get a knitting circle going ;-) ;-) :-D

Jem - this one is very simple, just garter stitch -, and increasing and decreasing to form a square. I'm using different colours, using 2 strands of different ones in each square, so all or most will be different :-D :-D

Glad to hear that your meds are kicking in, Mersey - you'll fel so much better tomorrow :-D <3

Jems I wonder if she got any holes yet, while posting on here as well ;-)

No holes, and not a stitch dropped :-D - though I do sometimes forget to increase or decrease and have to go back ............ ;-) ;-) :-D

:-D :-D :-D

We should all knit a square each! GR Friends Throw :-D :-D

But then we'd be "picking holes" in each other's work :-D :-D :-D

Why do you need to increase or decrease to make the square? Never done squares before!
