Okay, so this is kind of a funny story, but my wife came around to the eBook ways:

Last year she was reading alot of Kelley Armstrong books...so I decided to surprise her with a Nook for her birthday with the latest Armstrong books on it.

She didn't like it, she wanted to hold a book etc....I get it, I was the same way. So I returned it.

Fast forward to May of this year. We are on our way back from vacation, my wife finishes her book, and wants to read the next in the series. Since I'm driving I gave her the Nook Color with Waking the Witch on it, as well as eBook only short story releases that she has never read from her.

So she finishes the eBook stories, and begins the novel. We get back home, and get back into our routine and as I'm going to bed with my Nook Color to read (I work 3rd shift), she says "let me have your reader thingy" I want to read my book. Now mind you....SHE HAS THE PAPER VERSION!!

She goes to the doctors....takes my reader even though she has the paper version LOL.

So about a week ago I hear her talking to her sister about the new Kelley Armstrong that just came out, and she says I can't read it because my husband won't give me his reader.

I brought up the fact that she said...."I want to hold a paper book." And her response...."I lied" LOL.

I finally found a Nook Classic on Craigslist (thing looked brand new) for $40, and bought it for her.

Anyway, sorry for the long winded story...but she's now a convert! LOL.
