I have bought the paperback version of a few after reading the kindle version, because I thought it would be a great resource and I don't care for trying to find something again on my kindle.Suannahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03768381960849873308noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1378562155896437704.post-65215463794646703722013-06-28T14:09:18.125-04:002013-06-28T14:09:18.125-04:00I'm still a paper book girl, but only because ...I'm still a paper book girl, but only because I haven't justified the cost of an eReader in our budget yet. <br /><br />My wonderful husband did just buy me a new laptop though, so I'm super excited about not having to work completely confined to the desk. Maybe a Kindle will be next on my wishlist.

I always have something to read and something to read aloud to him. I started reading aloud to him in the NICU and that is a routine now for us when he has surgeries too. He's had 1 spinal surgery, 1 back surgery, and 6 brain surgeries already at age 1. Holding a Kindle is much lighter and easier than a real book when juggling a child hooked up to IVs, monitors, and sporting fresh surgical sites.

But we travel a lot, and I also read a lot. I was having the problem of always finishing my book before the end of the trip, then going through withdrawals. I brought more books, but then my bag was always too heavy. My kindle fixed all those problems, and has since been my constant companion. But, I haven't completely given up my paper books. Like you, I love the smell and feel too much for that. :) Kristenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06167506798203357534noreply@blogger.com
