I e-booked for a few years but I really missed the feel of paper. Trees must die for me to be happy.

I read primarily in bed, while laying on my side, until I fall asleep. e-books are great for that, as I don't have to hold a (most of the time lopsided) book open with the light on. I can read with the light off, and if I stop turning pages then the e-book turns itself off.

Plus, my giant bookshelf is full (my small ones have been for a while).

There's nothing like good literature to pass the time, calm the frayed nerves, and excite the inner child...

I like holding a book and flipping the pages. However, I sometimes don't have time to go to the library. Thus, I read on my kindle. It is also thinner and lighter to stuff into my purse. With the quarantine the past month, I borrow library books online.

I didn't know that was a thing. Cool.
