More and more, though, this is changing. People aren’t buying books so much as borrowing them from the library. Or reading them on their e-readers or computers. There’s nothing PHYSICAL on the shelves to tell strangers in your home, for better or worse, who you ARE.
Do you think this is a good thing? Bad? Discuss!
This is HORRIBLE!
I hate the idea of not owning physical books...
Of not being able to walk into a room and see a pile of familiar novels...
Of not touching the cool pages and admiring the shine of a brand new spankin' book!
Computers and e-readers will rob the true beauty of reading...You can't exactly cuddle up with your laptop!
Books reflect who we are! They brighten up a room ;)
I'm also not a big fan of e-readers. I love the feel of the book in my lap as i'm relaxing in front of my porch window. There's no better feeling. I don't see myself ever relaxing reading something on a kindle. Though, i have read e-books before but they have strictly been on my PC and I've never had much of a pleasant experience reading them. Books should be left in their original format, the way they were meant to be enjoyed.
