On a less rational note, there’s just something about the small Aura that I find very appealing. Its proportions are unusual -- my other ereaders, like most modern printed books, are comparatively tall and narrow and thick while the Aura is short and wide and thin. It somehow feels like an old book to me – an effect enhanced by the fact that I have a very light and soft black cover on it. Someone in another thread had pictures of a cover that they’d dressed up by putting a skin on it and I’ve done the same – my husband scanned the cover of a paperback copy of Agatha Christie’s The Murder at the Vicarage and printed it on sticker paper for me. It’s beyond ridiculous how much I love it.  |
Same here. We have an Aura and we all love its proportions. But my kids would rather read on their PW2 in the end.
