I have fallen in love with my iPad primarily because of the Kindle and iBook apps. I love that I can keep dozens (if not hundreds) of books available for me to read whenever the mood strikes me. I love that I can make comments and notes right inside the book, and not ruin the book itself. I love that I can download samples to see if I really would want to purchase the book. And I love that when a new book comes out that I’ve pre-ordered, it shows up on my desktop right away — no trip to the store required.

Because of this, I always have a bunch of books available to read on my iPad. Here are the SciFi and Fantasy books I am currently or soon going to read:

• Warrior by Zoë Archer
• Fantasy & Science Fiction Magazine, May 2012
• An Election by John Scalzi
• How I Proposed to My Wife: An Alien Sex Story by John Scalzi
• Triggers by Robert Sawyer
• Wide Open by Deborah Coates (sample)
• Flux: Night of the Blood Red Moon by J. Fancher
• Unhallowed Ground by Heather Graham
• The Writing Life: A Writer’s Journal by C. J. Cherryh
• Analog Science Fiction Science Fact Magazine, September 2012
• Existence by David Brin
• Sleepers by Megg Jensen (read my review of Sleepers)

Below is a Science Fiction Book Club list of the most significant SF novels between 1953–2006. The meme part of this works like so: Bold the ones you have read, strike through the ones you read and hated, italicize those you started but never finished and put a star next to the ones you love.
