I am currently reading The Book Thief on my Kindle and Salt, Sugar, Fat on my iPhone. I'm also planning to add The New Diary in paperback format this evening.

Nothing beats reading an actual, physical book. eBooks will come to pass, but a book will never disappear. Besides, if the world lost all capacity to have energy, wouldn't it be pointless to have eBooks? Nope, books are for me. If I can hold it and flip actual pages, and if I get the occasional papercut, then that's for me. Oh, and I am reading Skin by Ted Dekker.

Got my kindle books going on! Reading a book for review here, which is amazing and another book that I am slowly trekking through. It was supposed to be my light reading, but it's turning into more of an annoyance because it's so long. Hahah.

I'm reading Doctor Sleep on my iPad's Kindle app. I like e-books a lot more than I thought I would. I do love a good, old-fashioned book, though. It depends on my mood.

Vicars of Christ, The Dark Side of the Papacy by Peter De Rosa. Real book. Wasn't available in e-format.

Right now I'm reading several books but they are all hard cover or paper back. I'm getting ready though to start reading some of the books I have downloaded on my Nook when my holiday break from college starts next week.

VC Andrews! That's one author I used to follow as a teenager. I should check out some e-books then, thanks for refreshing my memory! :D
