With the number of devices available, we’re spoiled for choice. Kindle<\/span><\/strong>, Nook<\/span><\/strong>, Kobo<\/span><\/strong>, Sony<\/span><\/strong>, and iPad<\/span><\/strong>, e-book retailers, amazon<\/strong>, Barnes & Noble<\/strong>, Smashwords<\/strong>, the Sony Store<\/strong>, Diesel<\/strong>, iBooks<\/strong>, and more, not to mention direct from the publishers’ websites in many cases.<\/p>\n

But what titles to put on your device? Why not check out the authors over at Loveahappyending Lifestyle<\/a><\/strong>, traditionally published, self-published in e-book and print. The group Famous Five Plus<\/a><\/strong> are primarily indie authors, although they did invite me to join them. Both of these groups cover a wide range of genres including Young Adult, Chick-lit, Mystery, Romance, Paranormal, Memoirs, Crime.<\/p>\n

What are you reading?
