Try different ones before you make a decision.

A few new ones will be on the market soon (Oct 1st I believe?)and I'll probably crack and get one then. <br /><br />Speaking of indie books/e-readers Indiebound has an e-reader app now. I don't know how it works exactly but I thought I'd throw that out there. <br /><br />I'm in the market for an e-reader mostly because I've been approved to review some books on Edleweiss and NetGalley and I have no interest in sitting at my computer to read them in an Adobe format. Zzzz, no thanks! ;) The Relentless Readerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07059240496186812005noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7342238559153885531.post-41067810869450442102012-09-19T18:10:40.618-07:002012-09-19T18:10:40.618-07:00I agree about the Indie book stores..One near me h...I agree about the Indie book stores..One near me has added a huge gift and toy department which is larger than the book section...kind of a sad commentary.<br />Another book store on Martha's Vineyard relocated to smaller quarters and seems to be doing well.. They are a real tourist attraction so that helps.joycehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13633121524540662924noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7342238559153885531.post-77115747245029112072012-09-19T17:17:03.634-07:002012-09-19T17:17:03.634-07:00Hi Joyce - I had seen this article.

I know people lament the decline of paper books and therefore disparage the E - readers.<br /><br />I find the dictionary function indispensable. As I read a lot of history I find the ability to looks things up as I read addicting.<br /><br />One thing that I lament is the decline of the independent book store. There is still one great one and a few not so great ones near where I live, however.<br /><br />Amazon is also convenient but I would rather buy from an independent then a large corporation.Brian Josephhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15139559400312336791noreply@blogger.com
