When they run out of shelf space and have books on every flat surface in the house, they will understand why some of us really love eBooks and Kindles.
Sing it! Ain't dat the troot!
I had to build two extra rooms on my house, each 10x25x8, just to give me six more walls to put in bookshelves.
When the Kindles came out, I just couldn't imagine giving up the feel of the page texture and the book weight to read on a digital screen ... in fact, every now and then when I'm really engrossed in an ebook, I still find myself reaching up to turn the pages.
But then the last trip that we made before I got my Kindle, I found that I was packing almost a full roll-on legal briefcase full of books for the trip. So I decided to give the Kindles a try.
Oh, man, it was like I had discovered fire, sliced bread, and air conditioning all at the same time. Now my problem is that I've almost filled up one keyboard Kindle with books that I want to "keep available" in case I decide one day that I suddenly want to read one of them again. The second keyboard Kindle is about half-full and I'm seriously considering getting a Kindle Fire 8 just so that I can have the capability of putting a 200 GB micro-disk in it to extend the 32 GB memory.
This has almost become as bad as being hooked on heroin. So, now, in addition to still having over 2000 physical books, my wife and I have a combined total of over 6000 ebooks. Somebody may have to stage an intervention on me one day ... but not today --- I've got too much reading to catch up on ...
