Very well said!DATo wrote:I have an eReader and I have used it but I find myself drawn to actual books. I think, in the final analysis, it has more to do with what you are used to. There is something else too: I like the idea of a library I can actually see. Call me "old fashioned" but I get more enjoyment out of looking at all the walls of my library lined with bookshelves containing 3000+ books than I think I would looking at my eReader sitting in the middle of a wall all alone despite the fact that it may contain the same number of books.
What is grief, if not love persevering?
Grief is just love with no place to go.

So for the past year, minus a few careful and high out of reach reads (The new illustrated Hp!!), I have been religiously using my kindle. I upgraded to the paperwhite, so that I am able to read in bed without disturbing my grumpy husband. Again, it's a convenience.
