the kindle is not good for my night's rest

i have a problem that when i start reading, i can't stop.  i just got a kindle & every other night i'm up until 2am finishing a book.  this madness has got to stop!

what's worse is halfway through the book last night, i realized i'd read it before (an agatha christie mystery) but continued reading anyway.  even though i was pretty sure i remembered who the killer was.

 

Re: the kindle is not good for my night's rest

  • lol - I have a feeling this is going to be me.

    I was very much against ereaders, but now that Kindle is coming out with Kindle Fire, i'm pretty freaking excited.

  • yeah, i bought one b/c i've started to try to replace the tv with reading & getting to the library can be a challenge. enter: the kindle.

    except, i can turn a tv show off mid-way through but i can't put down a book.  so now i'm all: Sleep  my plan may have backfired!

  • I am so the same way.  I just can't stop and make myself go to bed unless I am literally falling asleep while reading, but if it's a good book then that never happens.  It's like an evil catch 22.  It's why sometimes I don't start new books since I know I will be obsessed.  The iPad is so dangerous.  It doesn't keep DH up at night, so now I can stay up as late as I want which is good and bad.  I am reading way more now, which I figure can't be a bad thing.

  • I just put a whole bunch of books on hold for my kindle at the library yesterday!  I'm excited to see how the process works
  • Same here.  I would have been asleep by 10PM this past weekend both night but instead I stayed up until midnight reading on my Kindle.  The only thing that saved me last night was that my battery was low and I listen to audiobooks on it during my commute so I HAD to charge it up last night.
