Customer: *peering at my Kobo* Oh! You have one of those ereaders, good for you! Oh, but you should get an iPad, they're multifunctional.
Me: I can't afford one of those.
Customer: Oh, yeah, well, the second generation is coming out, so maybe wait till it goes down in price.

Customer: By the way, what are you reading?
Me: The Twelve Kingdoms: The Shore in Twilight.
Customer: Oh, really? Oh yeah, that's a popular one! Have a good day! *leaves*
Me: What, no it's not. No one's even heard of it...

I have the impression he just had no idea what I was reading and wanted to sound cool.

What's your book about?

Shore in Twilight is about the search for the missing king and his kirin from one of the kingdoms in that world. It goes back and forth in time, from the past, recent past, and present. It's so far really sad, but very good.
