“A little before twilight one Christmas Eve, Gabriel shouldered his spade, lighted his lantern, and betook himself towards the old churchyard, for he had got a grave to finish before the next morning, and feeling very low, he thought it may raise his spirits perhaps, if he went on with his work at once.”

The Story of the Goblins who Stole a Sexton by Charles Dickens

 

The smell of a crackling fire, the taste of mulled wine and the words of a scarily spooky ghost story was a much loved Victorian tradition. Why not bring this tradition up to date by enjoying a cozily creepy evening curled up with Christmas ghost stories on the new Kobo Touch.

Kobo has a range of Christmas eBooks suitable for the period lover or the most contemporary tastes, but better still create the perfect ambience by lighting the Christmas candles and switching on the Kobo Touch (£79.99),

 

Tis the season to be eReading, revive the tradition with one of these five eBooks:

For The Mum Who Loves To Read.

Posted on by

It will be mother’s day soon and we have found the perfect present for mothers who love to read, the Kobo Touch eReader is the perfect gift.

The Kobo Touch is a new kind of eReader that delivers a straight forward, clutter-free reading experience. Diminutive in size, a great travel companion which fits easily in your handbag and a perfect way to keep your ‘new you’ secret weapon just that!

So if mum likes reading the latest biography by Dawn French or get inspired by the recipes of Mary Berry or Lorraine Pascal or even get lost in the novels of the Brontes, the new Kobo Touch eReader is a wonderful present. With the Kobo Touch eReader, she can carry more than one book with her when she’s on the go and not be weighed down.

There are over one million free books and great savings on current printed books. Kobo Touch will allow users to read and store up to 1,000 eBooks, expanding to 32,000 with an SD card.

The Kobo Touch is light and stylish with a signature quilted back for comfort, which comes in four great colours: lilac, silver, blue and black.

It’s the eReader to be seen with – even if you don’t want to break a habit of a lifetime or try something new, use it to hold your classics, indulge in chick lit, or keep-up with the best sellers list.
