I’ve been anti-kindle for as long as I can remember, I have a pile of books in my office, a full bookshelf upstairs in Nicole’s office, and a few piles on our bedside tables - we love reading and love the in-hand experience of books. Because of this, I’ve always avoided Kindles. I wanted to add to my collection, build the piles and plethora of options at my fingertips to either read myself or loan out to friends. The thing is, there’s nothing more convenient than fitting any number of books into a bag on the go with the footprint of 1/10th of a normal book. My kindle even has some form of free cellular coverage - so when on a road trip nowhere near wifi, you can always download a new book from the kindle store.
