With the impending arrival of my Amazon Kindle
In the end I scraped together a smallish list and fortunately most of the authors have new books, or at least new to me, for sale in the Kindle book store. Here’s the list for far;
Richard Laymon, Ben Elton, Poppy Z Brite, Nick Hornby, Elmore Leonard, Louise Welsh, Daniel Handler, Kim Jeeble, Dean Koontz, Steven King, Chuck Palahniuk, James Patterson, and Jonathan Kellerman….
I ended up ordering Nick Hornby’s book Slam;
Just when everything is coming together for Sam, his girlfriend Alicia drops a bombshell. Make that ex-girlfriend—because by the time she tells him she’s pregnant, they’ve already called it quits. Sam does not want to be a teenage dad. There’s only one person Sam can turn to—his hero, skating legend Tony Hawk.
DHL just can’t get here soon enough, I’m like a little kid at Christmas…..I want my Kindle now. waaaaaah…haha pretty sad hey. So my order’s been sitting in the DHL warehouse in LA for about 12-14 hours now, I guess it’s probably waiting for a flight to Sydney…..hopefully there’s one later tonight / today.
Anyway, got any suggestions of books / authors I should check out?

You may have read it, but John Marsden’s “Tomorrow, when the war began” series is supposed to be put in production for a movie shortly…if they have a Kindle version ready it might be worthwhile reading up before hand…
Hey thanks for the suggestion Sammy, I’ve never read any of Marsden’s work so I’ll have to go see if he’s got anything available on the Kindle….
Cheers
