Ahh. I read a lot of old whodunnits, but most are available as ebooks. And yes you are lucky to have used bookstores close by. They are rare where I live these days. There are a couple of good ones I know of but at least 2 hours away. All of the ones I used to go to are victims of high rent or believe it or not arson.

I didn't think I would like reading on an ebook reader when I got my first very expensive one, but it was love at first book. Literally a pheromone rush.

I was recently given some books by A. A. fair that are not out as ebooks and I certainly am enjoying reading them in paper but overall my experience has been mostly the opposite of yours. I have borrowed or bought ebooks by many authors who are no longer living, that I had never come across in a new or used bookstore and I used to spend a lot of time in both as well as thrift stores and even some pawn shops that carried books.

My previous post was more than a little knee jerk, which I can be at times. Sorry for that. I am happy that you are happy.
