• @Vanie I used to have a huge collection of classic sci-fi paperbacks. The bookshelf I built took up a whole wall. Now, I don't think I even own a real book. I have ebooks, thousands, though, on some drive or other, that I load onto whichever ebook reader or tablet is handy.

    My book collection is just a makeup of books that I accumulated during my grade school years. As you said, ebooks are kind of what people use nowadays to replace physical books. That's what I've been using recently.

  • @Vanie I miss all the old books, but ebooks save so much space, and paper, too

    Yes they do and ebooks can't be read so much they are falling apart


  • @Vanie Preach it sistah~


  • Books are an important part of my life. I think that it would have been impossible for me to live without reading.


  • It's a good escape


  • @Vanie I'm with you all the way on this Vanie, there are books i have more love and affection for rhan members of my family. My only criticism of books (and this is especially hardbacks) is when you're lying in bed reading a big epic, for me usually fantasy or sci fi, and you're near the end, you have a wafer in one hand and a shoe box in the other, it's a little awkward. Tbh there's been many times when books have saved me, either from the wisdom they offer, or more usually because they are a bolthole i can hide in from bullshit reality


  • @Vanie Also, ebooks are fairly easy to share, with friends. Small files, many can be attached to an email, or even posted here in a comment!
