Well, that escalated quickly.

My sister used to read a lot up until she started university. Since then she's always said that she has to read so much for uni and later work that she doesn't want to read at home anymore.

On Tuesday she went on vacation, for the first time on her own, and she had to be at the airport 3 hours before take off. She was complaining about the long wait so I suggested she buy a book at the airport. She didn't really react to that. On Tuesday afternoon I get a phone call that she's at the airport looking at books and asks my help picking one. Since our taste is fiction is very different I used Goodreads to help her pick not one but two books.

Last night she messaged me that she has finished the first book. This morning she messaged me if, when she gets back next week, I can help her pick out an ereader. I'll probably have her try out the two I have, a Kobo Libra Color and a Boox Pocket to see if she wants a classic sized ereader or a small one.
