I was talking to one of the parents at my son’s daycare today. He told me that he wanted to get his wife an e-reader and that she wanted a Kindle. However, he mentioned that Barnes And Noble just released their new e-reader today, and he wondered if he should get that for her instead.
The conversation got me to thinking…I’ve never tried an e-reader before! I love books, the feel, the smell, the look…I can’t imagine reading a book on a screen. I’m old-fashioned and I enjoy the actual, honest-to-goodness paper product in my hand. Maybe I’ll need to borrow someone’s e-reader one day just to see what all the hoopla is about!
Do any of you use an e-reader? Do you like it? Which one do you use and what are the benefits of the different e-book readers available? Do you miss the feel, smell, and look of a print book? Inquiring minds want to know!
