What I have learned about ebooks
For the last couple of years, I have been resisting getting an Ebook reader. Now I read a lot of books, there are at least five large full bookcases in the office, but there was no way an Ebook was coming in the house. If the pages could not be turned, it had no place in the house. Well my wife gave me an Ebook pre-loaded with four Ebooks for my birthday a couple of months ago, so what could be done I had to let it stay.
The Ebook reader stayed in the box for a month, and was finally opened when I was waiting for a new book to arrive. Looks like the Ebook reader will be staying around, because I fell in love with it. One feature that anyone will enjoy is no page turning and no paper cuts.
With my ebooks there is no need to find a bookmark, or remember what chapter I was reading. I open the selected book and it is right at the last page I was reading. Another great feature is being able to write notes on the book, something I would only previously due in a textbook or cookbook.
My ebook collection is growing slowly, and I can already tell there will not be a need for another large bookcase in the house. There are websites that have ebooks of classics for free, and I have downloaded a number of the books I enjoy too the ebook reader.
One of the first ebooks that I purchased had extra items included. Though we are no tree huggers, it is nice to know that no trees had to be cut down to produce my latest collection of ebooks. An extra advantage of ebooks is the ability to do a search for a passage instead of having to flip through pages of a traditional book. Over the years of reading a series of books by an auther, I am not sure how much time I have wasted going back to a previous story to see if I have remembered something in correctly or if the writer made a change.
This vacation there will be no separate bag for books, because only the ebooks will be coming on the trip. My future is going to have a lot less time traveling to the bookstore, because now I can just down load my choices, and avoid all of the traffic.
