2024 Build Your Library Reading Challenge

TGIF - Time to Hop!
5:44 AM
It's Friday and that means it's time for the Book Blogger Hop. If you haven't heard, the Hop is being revived by Billy over at Ramblings of a Coffee Addicted Writer. It works the same way it always has -- sign up on the Linky at Billy's blog, the Hop around and visit the other blogs on the list. The point? To find new book blogs, visit old favorites and have a good time. It's fun, trust me!
So, the question of the week is: Do you prefer reading printed books or using an e-reader?
- Well, not so long ago, I refused to even hold an e-reader in my hand. I loved "real" books too much—I loved the feel of them, the smell of them, the whole bit. Then, NetGalley came along and I needed a way to read e-galleys (I still won't read a book on my computer!). So, I caved and bought a Kindle Fire. And guess what? I love it. I didn't think I would, but I do, I really do. These days, I still mostly read printed books, but I enjoy a fair amount of e-books (most of which are e-ARCs), too. I'm no longer anti e-readers because I believe what Stephen Fry said: "Books are no more threatened by [e-readers] than stairs by elevators." Too true.
If you're new to BBB, welcome! I'm so glad you're here. Please take a moment to look around my blog, make a comment (or two or ten) and, most importantly, come back often. I promise to return the favor.
Happy reading!
