If I calculated the amount of hours that I actually spend interacting with my possessions the order would probably be:

  1. Laptop
  2. Kindle
  3. Mobile phone

However I use my laptop predominantly for work.

If I were to factor in the possession that I probably most enjoy then my Kindle would come out a clear winner.

I love my Kindle.

If I’m on holiday then my Kindle is by far the most used item that I take with me. Even when I’m at home it spends a great deal of time in my hands.

My reading collection is quite varied but most of the time I read crime fiction interspersed with some non-fiction.

There have been occasions where I have become so engrossed in a book that I have read it in less than a day. Or stayed up till 4am to finish it, even though I have work the next day.

There’s just something about a good book.

Unlike Hollywood blockbusters, a book rarely lets you down (I think the reason I dislike many Hollywood movies is because they overkill the effects and completely ignore the story — the story is paramount).

So if you even plan on ditching me on a desert island please at least leave me with a well stocked Kindle and a solar power charger.
