I don’t find that the case for me. I read from a tablet for convenience sake. The problem my wife and I both shared at first was too many books made us a bit “flighty” (we’d start one, go to another, go to another, etc; not so much a shortened attention span as a “Wait! I wanna read this one more!” thing). Ended up keeping a single book in the device until done, then going onto the next. We read a book or two a week.
Just started in on Heinlein again after a Sax Rohmer break: “Number of the Beast”. Which, I suppose, completely negates my opinion. ;)
I’m not flighty...I pick up a book....read the last 2 pages....and then start at the beginning. This way, I’m engaged in the trail....not guessing.
Heinlen’s “Red Planet” has been re-released in it’s never before seen original version. I just read it from the library on digital.
Funny I recently re read Herman Wauk’s books on Winds of War.
I was surprised it didnt hold up as well as I expected. By holding up I mean that although it was a good story, the time that it was written, the late sixties, show through in the story about the thirties and forties.
I think I just might re read the all creatures great and small series.
Recently re read some Heinlin. Could not finish the Foundation trilogy plus two. Held me spellbound in the seventies.
