Mind of a Goldfish, Body of a Sloth!
Has anyone else noticed this phenomenon? I've discovered I'm much more impatient with books on my iLiad than I am with paper books. If I'm reading an ebook and I'm not sure I'm enjoying it, I'll switch to one of the other 1500 books I have at my fingertips. Consequently, my iLiad is full of half-finished ebooks. Whereas, I'm discovering, now that my iLiad is off to be repaired, I have more patience with a paper book, because to change partway through means to get up and go to the bookshelf and find something else. And besides, if you don't finish a paper book, then all those resources used up creating it are wasted.

Or is it just me?
