I love to read. When I have the time, that is. There really is nothing better than losing yourself in a story for a few days. One of the worst things is to complete a book series! You have to say goodbye to the stories and characters... until you reread it!
I am an avid user of the local library, for books, music and movies. I started using it immensely for a Children's Literature course at my undergraduate school, and have been using it frequently ever since. One of the best things about the library is the fact that they do ebooks as well! I downloaded the needed app (for free) and can request books, like normal. When the file is available, I download it from my email and it is ready to go for 2-weeks! It goes away automatically once the allotted time is complete.
The question to me is: What is better? Ebooks or The Real Deal?
To me, it depends on the situation. I love holding a hefty book. My favorites are hardbacks. When I throw them in my tote-purses, they don't bend. However, when I'm traveling, the ebooks are the way to go! I have everything I need for a flight right on my iPad. I've even read The Hunger Games series on my smartphone a year ago!
I was looking up infographics for this post and found one that really shows that printed books are here to stay.
