Anyone here use ereaders? I'm thinking between the Nook and the Kindle 2. Both have their pros and cons.

Any opinions on this matter?

I have a Nook and I love it, it has many advantages over other e-readers, such as ability to read .pdf and .epub formats and it has free wi-fi, read my review HERE

I'm currently using my Nook to read "1984" by George Orwell

Adrian Tchaikovsky - Salute the Dark - Book 4 of the Shadows of Apt series.

I've been slowly reading this the last few weeks. It just has yet to grab me like the first 3 books. It might be because I'm only able to read a bit at a time too though, I usually am able to dive into my books at work, but I changed contracts so I can't read at work anymore (yet I can browse the net, go figure)

The Girl Who Kicked the Hornets' Nest by Stieg Larsson

Its a good thriller, as are the other two books in the series that precedes this (The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo, The Girl who Played with Fire). The only problem is that in each book, the first one-third is wasted waiting for the story to start. The first 7 or 8 chapters could easily be cut down to 2 or 3 chapters without affecting the story in any way.
