Kindle vs real book

[ALB2012]

I still have shelves of books, often out of print ones not available yet on kindle. I do think kindle is not so good for illustrations but overall I love it. I find it far easier to carry. Downloading is instantaneous and cheaper.

I agree there is something nice about a "real book" and all those lovely first editions and signed copies cannot really make an appearance on kindle. I also can 't really read in the bath

I would not, howvere get rid of my kindle and now I tend to buy e-books unless its an author I really like or something takes my fancy. We don't have space for more shelves.

Put the kindle in a gallon Ziploc bag. (This is what my wife does frequently.)

hahaha good plan.

I need to get one of those little lights too. My partner has one

I have lots of printed books in my office but once I got my iPad they went to the wayside.

I much prefer reading on the iPad. Unlike some, I like the screen. The backlight is nice for reading when the wifey sleeps.

I actually read a lot more now that I have the iPad. Free trials of books, reviews, instant purchasing which means I'm not in a bookstore for hours a week looking for my next reads.
