Now that is a memory similar to mine.
As a child (from age 8-17) I used to stay at my grandparents who dairy farmed near a small coastal country town some 300km south of Perth (Dunsborough).
Pop had a wonderful range of hardcover books, plus readers digest omnibus books. There were great stories to be read and every year there was new reading material. When my Nana died in 1999 (Pop died in 1992), I was left with a wide choice of those old hardcovers. They bring back wonderful and delightful memories to me. Cherished memories.
Certainly, ebooks would not convey that wonder in the same form. But in 40 years time, perhaps it might.
