I'm actually planning on buying an original NST, not the Nook Glow and not the NST with Glowlight.

I want to use it just to read library books and I'll join a few Overdrive libraries. I held the original in the store way back when and loved how it was so easy to hold. I had the kindle keyboard back then which I broke some time later.

The NST had nice large sides for holding and it was thick too and had a nice back with little mounds for your fingers to grip on.

I think the Nook Glowlight got rid of that and the NST with glowlight had design flaws making the screen more prone to failing. Thus, the solution is to get an original NST.

I don't mind checking out paper books too, but honestly this e-book thrust I'm going into now is fueled partly by the fear of some disgusting viruses I heard they found on the books. People are putting their hands where they don't belong while reading. Really nasty, though they said you couldn't catch it. I don't know. Also, just the germs in general, maybe I'd be more likely to get sick?
