I had an idea for an icon

[jennythe_reader]

It will take some actual staging of pictures, but here's the idea:

Shot 1: a huge pile of books on my nightstand, with the caption "20th century To Read pile"

fade to

Shot 2: my Kindle, zoomed in enough that you can see the text on the screen, with the caption "21st century To Read pile"

Comments? Suggestions? Heckles?

fade to Shot 3, your Kindle on top of your stack of books. *disclaims all resemblance to my life*

That's a good idea for a finish.

*splutter*

yeah, though usually they're all actually *on* the bed here...

For some reason my husband objects when I do that. :)

Cute idea.

Still whether a hundred books on a pile or a kindle still equals a lot of books.

The physical presence of a pile is a stronger reminder of all there is to read.
