Part of it is that feel of a "real book in my hands" experience...but a big part is also the fact that I spend 80-90% of my day (work and blogging) onscreen. When I read for pleasure, I want it to be a totally different experience from work...and I'm not going to get that if I'm staring at another glowing screen.Bev Hankinshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01127476456755776574noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4212778319280550447.post-56926483829196470192012-01-16T09:32:13.927-05:002012-01-16T09:32:13.927-05:00I do know an e-reader has lots of benefits, like t...I do know an e-reader has lots of benefits, like the ones you listed.

I am a mood reader as well and I love having (250 books currently) in my purse. I use to bring 14 paperbacks when we went to Aruba for 2 weeks, now with the baggage regulations, that extra weight would matter.<br /><br />I'm no longer a fan of hardcovers as they are just too heavy to read in bed, carry around etc. Trade size is still my favorite for print books.<br /><br />Love your neighborhood watch cat!

I really like them for being able to fit in my pocketbook for doctor appointments, errands, etc. However, I do love the feel of being surrounded by my Print books while sitting in my reading room.CMashhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02127437807115591580noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4212778319280550447.post-5311390433720758462012-01-16T07:29:08.092-05:002012-01-16T07:29:08.092-05:00I'm on the fence.

Go figure.<br /><br />I have way too many physical books that are unread to contemplate buying them as ebooks. I too shudder when I think of moving them!<br /><br />I also have too many formats to lock myself into a specific ereader. For now, I have a touch with a kindle app.Book Dragonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11078900987400537432noreply@blogger.com
