You May Be A Real Ebook Lover If......
With a "tip of the hat" to comedian Jeff Foxworthy's "You May Be A Redneck If..." I'd like to find out who you think a real ebook lover is. I'll start it off.

You May Be A Real Ebook Lover If...

You need to find the secret of imortality in order to read all the books in your library

... you are genuinely surprised when a p-book doesn't automatically open to your last read page when you pick it up.

So true. It feels like a failure if I've spent more unproductive time online than on my ereader.

...you want to find something you read in a pbook and you think, no problem, I'll just search for it.
