We need to keep making physical books popular and passed-on to new generations of readers!
I agree, I've read books both ways but really prefer holding a book in my hands, to reading it on a screen. It seems more real to me when I can hold it, I guess. : ) So I pass my books around to friends.

Enjoy!

"Deceived" by Stella Barcelona. I just started and am only on chapter 5. Some of the formatting is odd, which I'm not loving, but I'm most definitely hooked by the story line. Something big is about to happen!! I'm on the edge of my seat (and losing sleep as I continue to convince myself that I can get through 'one more chapter').
