What Reading Apps do you use?

Welcome to my first ever mini series called Reading Apps. This is the first installment. What Reading apps do you use. I was just wondering about something. What book related apps have you used to read books, reviews and other things? I have use several different ways to read my books. One of the ways is by using apps that are available out there to read them. I read by using an e-reader, Physical bocks.  Soon to be added would be audiobooks. Did you ever use an app for your computer or table or phone to read books or review books? Lots of them are out there. Tell me what ways do you use them or any of them? Did you know you can read anywhere and even check out Reviews just about anywhere.

Products I use to read books. I will list them for you and see how I read and where I use them.

1. E-Readers: I use this almost regularly. I even use them when I am on vacation and trips.
2. Computers /Laptops : I really do not use this for reading books. I only used this away twice.
3. Tablets: You can read your books and e-books on here and so much more.
4. Mobile Phones: I barely use this option to read.

I would suggest that you my like reading a book with out having to carry a lot of books. Well this may be your answer to think about getting a e-reader product.

Review: King

Book Title: King
Author: R.J. Larson
Publisher: Bethany House
Pub Date: July 1, 2013
Book Resource: I received this book in expanse for an honesty review.
Genres: Christian Fiction, Fantasy,Religion, Adult, Young Adult
Series: Book of the Infinite #3
Synopsis: Akabe of Siphra, I have brought your enemies low and lifted you from the dirt.
Against his wishes and desires, Akabe Garric has been chosen by his people to be king. A warrior at heart, he’d never dreamed of such a swift, unexpected rise to power. Determined to prove his worth to the citizens of Munra and honor his Creator, Akabe undertakes a monumental task: to rebuild the Infinite’s Holy House in Siphra.
Only this I ask: Restore My temple and let Me dwell again among the people.
Akabe soon discovers that the land he needs is held by the Thaenfalls, known Atea-worshipers who will give up their claim only if he marries into their line. Though he seeks direction from the Infinite, his pleas are met with silence. Frustrated, Akabe makes an impulsive decision, sweeping his nation into a lethal storm that threatens his plans for the temple. As questions of love and faith become tangled with lies, ancient feuds, and treacherous plots, can Akabe, his mysterious queen, and his trusted friends Ela and Kien Lantec find the Infinite’s path…or will they fail as so many others before?
Will your faith hold strong when I am silent? Child, can you be My king?
My Thoughts:
I truly do not remember what this book was about. I do remember reading it but not sure how it goes anymore. That one thing I like about me I can read a book and still enjoy it over and over. When it good, I do this. This book was good to me. I know it about a boy either to become king or something like that. He is either to save a kingdom or something. I am sorry I can not remember. The overall of the book is good and fun to read. This is best for those of a favorite of fantasy.

Disclaimer: I received this book from Book for bloggers for free and for a honesty Review
Description: The youngest heir to a French-Italian restaurant dynasty, food writer Juliette D’Alisa has spent her life negotiating her skill with words and her restaurant aspirations. When her brother Nico offers her a chance to open a restaurant together, she feels torn—does she really have what it takes? Should she risk leaving her journalism career?
After the death of her grandmother, Juliette discovers an antique photograph of a man who looks strikingly like her brother. As the truth behind the picture reveals romance and dark secrets, Juliette struggles to keep the mystery away from her nosy family until she can uncover the whole story.
Inspired by her grandmother’s evolving story, Juliette resolves to explore the world of online dating. To her surprise, she finds a kindred spirit in Neil McLaren, a handsome immunologist based in Memphis, Tennessee. With a long-distance relationship simmering, Juliette faces life-shifting decisions. How can she possibly choose between a promising culinary life and Neil, a man a world away in more ways than one? And is it possible her Grandmother’s story can help show the way?
My Thoughts:
I never thought I would like a series like this one. It was new to me and I did enjoy it. You get something that no other book does or often. You get recipes at the end of each chapter. I want to finish out this series when the books come out. I hope it soon. If you like recipes this book may be for you. None the less I hope you can decide for yourself. I hope you enjoy reading it. I hope you have a good experience with it but if not it okay. I really had a hard time putting it down. My other this is I had a little bit of a hard time reading it. It had nothing to do with the author or her writing. It had something to do with me myself and understanding the concept.
