e-books anyone?
Posted by MaryJan 15
I’m wondering how many of our readers like electronic books. And if you like e-books, do you have an e-reader or do you read them on your computer? And if you have an e-reader, is it an ipad, a Kindle, or a Nook?
Last Christmas I received a Kindle as a gift. It’s wonderful. In seconds, I can search for and download a book from Amazon. More than that, I can carry tons of books with me in the tiny little space of my Kindle.
Yes, there are books that I like to own in hard copy. I don’t think anything will ever really replace books. I don’t think I’d take my Kindle in the bath tub, and hard copy books don’t require batteries. But I love being able to carry my entire reading list with me without the bulk or weight of books. At any given time I can switch between a fiction, self improvement, or research book without setting down my reader. I’ve even started buying articles on Amazon and I wouldn’t be surprised to see a newspaper or magazine subscription on there soon.
So tell me, do you read e-books? And if so, what do you read them on?

I received a Kindle for Christmas this year, but haven’t purchased any ebooks yet. I am trying to finish my stack of hard copies first!
