You know you've gotten into the whole e-reader thing when...

You borrow an e-pub from the library of a book you actually own, just so you can read it on your Kobo.

A little background: a year or so back I bought a remaindered copy of Jim Butcher's Turn Coat (#11 of the Dresden Files.) Always enjoy getting a hardcover for less then a paperback. At the time, I'd only read up to number six.

I eventually borrowed a collection of the Dresden Files books (#7-12) and read up through #10. My Touch, I will admit, had problems with the large e-pub. (The Dresden books are not small.) A little burned out on Dresden, I never got around to cracking open my copy of Turn Coat.

A few days ago I ended up getting a copy of Small Jobs (a Dresden short story compilation) from the library. And when I reached the section set after Turn Coat, I figured "I should get around to reading that."

But these days, I do a lot of my reading (maybe even a majority) on the bus, on my Kobo. Heck, even in my house it's been ages since I read a p-book. So I borrowed the Turn Coat e-pub from my library.
