But I still read it daily. And I love the quest at the library of finding the right book. I also love knowing I can go online to reserve a book I've been dying to read, and then pick it up at the library. All very satisfying.<br /><br />I see the Kindle as a supplement, not a replacement to all of those things I love.<br /><br />I'll let you know...Karenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06549453373381775445noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3205538229281562484.post-88724308342699945062009-05-24T08:25:50.876-04:002009-05-24T08:25:50.876-04:00I have mixed feelings about the Kindle.

We've stomped out to the end of our driveway for 25 years to get it and I have to say, I miss it! I think I would miss books...the smell, the feel, the whole experience even more. I'll let you take the plunge, Karen. You can let me know what you think.

But I don't really travel much or have any other way to justify one (although that's never stopped me before).<br /><br />Buy one!
