I just got a Kindle and I need good books
I'm down to read anything interesting. I guess I prefer realistic fictiony stuff. No genre in particular beyond that. I know that's really broad but whatev

that sounds really fucking boring
read jack london's white fang and call of the wild
i'm reading the former at the moment--the descriptiveness of it all is amazing
"On the Beach"- A real nice short easy read where austrailia is the last vestige of humanity after nuclear war and the fallout is blowing that way. Super cool read.
"Mysterious Island" by jules verne is one of my favorite novels of all time, and you should read it. Plus, it's free on the kindle store. How about that? Follows some civil war escapees who crash land a balloon on an island. The ingenuity of the survivors is amazing, from creating explosives out of simple materials, to establishing a working farm.
Pirate attacks, strange happenings and a cameo from another great character that Jules verne penned, it's a brilliant piece.
go read on the road
Last and First Men by Olaf Stapledon.
My brother just got me the first 4 books of The Dark Tower by Stephen King for my birthday because I told him I haven't read anything....like ever since the 5th harry potter and he decided to start me out on these. and I haven't started any of them. It was a nice surprising present though, I was like OH books...cool.

Yea, that's kinda what I meant, I was excited to get a book cuz it was the last thing I expected. I should have used an exclamation point after cool! but I don't like expressing exclamations.
