Hello from across the pond

Thank you again, everyone, for making me feel welcome. This is a great site. Nothing like hanging about with people who LOVE to read. With all the other distractions these days, I'm so pleased to have found this group. I worry people will eventually give up reading in favour of the web, film, tv, iPods, and whatever gadgets come along next.

 

How does everyone feel about the Kindle and its ilk?

Personally, I can't justify the spend on one of the specialist e-book readers, and having only seen the one Waterstone's sell, I wasn't particularly impressed. Plus, I love the look, feel, smell and emotional attachment of a real book.

 

Having said that, I can see the benefits of having an e-reader of some sort, particularly for holidays and travelling. I know when we go on holiday for a week, I usually take at least 10 books, so an e-reader would certainly save space in the boot of the car!
