I don't have any books to recommend, but just some advice: Be careful about hording. If you think you had a problem keeping your TBR pile under control with paper books, then it just gets so much more worse (and easier to fall into) on the kindle. I'm a poor example of this, but just be aware of it.

As far as books go: Get those big heavy hardcover books that you always wanted to read, on there first. There are way too many books to recommend otherwise, you'll have to be a bit more specific.

I cringe at the thought, but I suppose between that and highlighting, it's the lesser of two evils.

I've never heard of this author, or this method being used before. Thanks for the exposure!

I imagine something like this wouldn't translate too well on my Kindle either, so it's probably worthwhile buying it in print.
