For me, there will always be room for "shelf worthy" authors...Agatha Christie, James Michener, early Stephen King.
Just seeing a wall of paper books makes me feel good all over!  |
I didn't even think about that! I've bought about four knitting books as well since I bought my Reader, but they aren't available at all electronically. (I still think of ebooks as pretty much fiction/bestseller nonfiction only -- and I should know better!)
