I own a Nook Simple Touch and I absolutely love it. I chose Nook over Kindle because Nook has touch screen, support for ePUB, expandable memory via micro SD card, better user experience and better ergonomics. Also you can convert Kindle's mobi and azw3 formats to ePUB using Calibre.

Finished Hunger Games...it's decent read. Now reading Catching Fire.

Try this powershell command Get-ChildItem -Path C:\Test -Recurse -force | Where-Object { -not ($_.psiscontainer) } | Remove-Item -include *+"(2).txt" -Force Sigh! doesn't work. Deletes all files. Need some more tweaking.

Well you can buy books from Kindle store and convert them to ePUB using Calibre and read them on Nook. Not only Kindle store, there are many other online stores which sell books in ePUB format.

Got my physical copy of Aadhar card after 4 months of registering.

IMHO Nook is built quite well. I purchased nook as I wanted to have touch screen. Also touch UI of nook is more polished than Kindle. Also most of my books were in ePUB format. So getting a Nook was logical for me.

Well in Nook, you can see the sides are little wider compared to Kindle. Hence it's easy to hold even in lying on bed position. I got it from my US via one of my friends and hence no warranty. For $49, i took the risk :)

Yes, that's the one. Yes, I have Nook Simple Touch and it's not backlit. Touch is okay, not as great as mobiles, but it gets the work done. Also there is 4 physical keys on sides to turn pages. Nook is more ergonomic in holding.

I have got a Nook and I absolutely love it. For $49, it really a bang for buck. Reading hasn't been so convenient and economical. E-ink displays don't put any strain on eyes, it's like seeing the actual book.

Yes, it's a trilogy basically. Next in series are "Catching Fire" and "Mockingjay".

Finished "The Kill List" by Frederick Forsyth. I enjoyed reading it. The story was nice but end was predictable. Also finished "The Martian" by by Andy Weir. This is one of the best books read so far, definitely in my top 5. It's story about an astronaut who got left behind by fellow crew...

Finished "The Lowland" by Jhumpa Lahiri. Well I found it okay types, nothing exceptional. Story is kind of flat. Now reading "The Kill List" by Frederick Forsyth.

Finished "The White Tiger". Author's take on life of an average indian villager is brilliant. Liked the book overall. Now reading "The Man who knew Infinity: A life of the Genius Ramanujam" by Robert Kanigel.

I had pleasant experience with Snapdeal. Bought a laptop worth Rs 38k and it was delivered promptly and packaging was good. I bought CK and Davidoff EDTs too and they came in original pack with nice packaging. Overall thumbs up for Snapdeal.

Finished "The Cuckoo's Calling" by J. K. Rowling. Plot was nice but felt little slow some times. Now reading "The White Tiger" by Aravind Adiga.
