One of my favorite things to do is to curl up and read a good book. I can still remember the first Scholastic paper back book my mom purchased for me - a story about a princess and a dragon. I can still smell the newness of the book and the way the pages had to be bent back. And then later on in life, when I became an adult, I purchased my first hard back book - and it was love at first sight. After that, I always found it difficult to buy a paper back book -- and then came the Kindle. Talk about an adjustment!!
What I love most about my Kindle - I don't have to drive to the bookstore, or wait for a clerk to order my book. I can download a sample of a book before I purchase it and I can download magazines. Sure, it has been an adjustment, but curling up with my Kindle has been the best experience ever.
I really need to check this out! Fantastic! xo
ReplyDeleteMy sis in law got this for Christmas. She and her husband just love it~!
ReplyDeleteI still like to hold a book in my hand. I do see the benefits of switching though. Time will tell!
ReplyDeleteDeborah,
ReplyDeleteI'm so glad you stopped by to visit me. I was wondering what happened to you. Missed you and look forward to your posts this summer.
Your post reminded me of the book fairs that used to come to our school, I would get so excited! I'm sold on the Kindle, for sure! Glad to stumble across your blog, am your newest follower!
