I display the books I’ve read on shelves like some people display their trophies, why would I want a Kindle?

I read from 1 to 3 books per month. But people have pointed put all my life I don’t look like a person who reads. People who know me know I read a lot, but people who’ve just met me never believe me when I tell them reading is a hobby of mine.

I used to just keep my books on my big bookshelf in the living room, but then people starting asking me if I actually read any of them.

Since many many people have pointed out I don’t look like a person who reads books, I started highlighting every book I read, and sticking tabs on some pages.

Now, if anyone asks me if I really read, I can show them how I put a tab on a specific part of a book I liked, and how the main points are highlighted.

I display display my books like trophies. If I ever bought a Kindle, I would no longer be able to display the books I read so:

Why would I want to buy a Kindle?

I do the same thing by ‘displaying’ the books I’ve read. I like to look back and see what I’ve read in solid form.

The question you should ask yourself is do you need a Kindle? Why are you asking if you should get one?

I think that the Kindle is more for convenience, for people on the go, or for people who don’t want to carry around a hard copy of a book. If you are perfectly capable of carrying your books, you might want to stick to hard copies.

On another note, the Kindle does save trees by using less paper.

If You’re Going Through Hell $4.25 East Tennessee singer-songwriter Rodney Atkins scored a chart-topper with the title track of this second release, reframing the Irish drinking toast (“May you be in heaven five minutes before the devil knows you’re dead”) in a modern context and tying it all up in a Celtic/banjo wrapping fit for Keith Urban. It’s a solid effort, and performed with unusual aplomb for a newcomer. But as the rest of …
