I definitely read more. There's no more dead time between books, plus I can read longer at a stretch because my hands don't get tired.

While I'm reading more books, I'm spending less. I no longer buy ten books at a time just to make sure I have something I like. I no longer read something I'm not really enjoying just because I don't have anything else. I get samples and buy the book when I have a good idea of whether I'll like it. Samples also encourage me to be more adventurous since I'm not spending anything to try the book.

I'm actually getting more out of my local public library than I did before, too. They've been really expanding their ebook collection. Now I can check out a book whenever I like, not just on a weekend when I have time to get there.

Plus, I've cleared up storage space in my house and my luggage is no longer half books when I travel.
