I have to say that my e-reader has finally got me to read any pre-1900 classics as I used to hate carrying around a BIG book. I also cringe when I have to break a spine to a thick tome paperback. I prefer the hardcovers but they too are hard to carry all the time when they are so long and thick. Since my e-reader, I don't think twice about reading a LONG book. As long as I am reading, I am happy.
