Best Book Review

Being a book lover and avid reader I often get asked what I think about the Kindle. I personally do not have a Kindle, nor have I ever used a Kindle, but my mother and grandfather both use a Kindle and seem to like it. I have a dilemma when it comes to the Kindle and willing myself to throw down a large amount of cash for one. On one hand, I would love to own a Kindle for those long trips when I will want to read a book, but do not know what I’ll be in the mood for at any particular moment.  A Kindle would grant me a portable library of hundreds or even thousands of books at my finger tips; no more packing an entire suitcase or bag just for my books! On the other hand, I love to hold a book in my hand. I love having filled bookshelves in my house. I love showing off my personal library. I’m sure in the future I may invest in a Kindle, or maybe get one as a gift or donation to this site (hint, hint), but meanwhile I’ll continue to be old school and read from an actual book.
