And that goes for me also, I have wanted to read a lot of the classics, some are hard to find others I just didn't want to spend the money on yet wanted to read them.
This way, I can read them; Oliver Twist, Pride and Prejudice, Dracula, King Solomon's Mine, Picture of Dorian Grey (reading that now
), Paradise Lost and Regained and the list goes on.
Some of the Tarzan series, A. Norton science fiction books and lots others that my grandson (hopefully) will enjoy reading. I can now read books to them, Black Beauty, Alice in Wonderland and the others classics they will probably never read I am now going to be able to read to them.
Having mobility problems in getting to the library, which is quite small, isn't worth the hassle. Another reason for an ereader, I buy most of my books online. Two pback and one HB arrived today. But have bought around 10 books at some DRM free bookstores in the past couple of days.
So, the ereader had been a great improvement for my life.
