I haven't bought an e-reader yet! Right now I have quite a few books on my TBR pile, and until I read them I can't justify buying an e-reader. I am one of those persons who cannot go in a bookstore and come out without a book. However, I am leaning toward buying one, but I think before I would buy one I would have to borrow one from a friend and see if I would like it. Time will tell.E-readers like the Kindle and iPad are sweeping the nation … do you have one? Do you like it? Do you find it changes your reading/buying habits? If you don’t have one, do you plan to?

I agree I'd like to test one properly before I buy one.

My library actually loans eReaders -- they have the Nook and the Sony.
ReplyDeleteMy BTT is here.
I don't have an e-reader either - yet!
ReplyDeleteHere’s my Booking Through Thursday post. :)
It's a good idea to test it. I really like my Kindle, but it probably isn't for everyone.
ReplyDeleteI don't have an e-reader yet either - I might probably hold out for a long time since I get 99% of my books from the library.
ReplyDeleteThe decision was out of my hands when I was gifted with one! But I had the same thoughts you do...here's MY BTT POST and
ReplyDeleteMY WEBSITE
I have a Kindle and LOVE it. I prefer reading on it actually.
ReplyDeleteI like new books though, do not enjoy library or burrowed books from those that don't care and love them so the ebook is perfect for me.
I love my Nook, though it will never take the place of "real" books. Here's my BTT.
ReplyDeleteI do recommend trying out different kinds until you find just the right "fit" for you!
I have that same problem with book stores! At least with e-books, I don't have to worry about finding shelves for everything. Still prefer "real" books though.
ReplyDeleteI do prefer reading the actual book.

I think those of us who are book addicts, will always need print books around us. I have a bookcase just of tbr books and 2 EReaders with many tbr novels there too.

ReplyDeleteI'm the same, I have such a huge TBR pile and those are just library books. I have quite a few books on my Kindle but I feel like I should read what I have from the library first because they have to go back. Of course I always end up getting more library books though!
ReplyDeleteWhy would you like to get one? For traveling? To organize books in one place? Just for fun?
If I had to justify my ereader by my TBR file I would never have gotten one, but of course now with the ereader my tbr list has quadroupled in size. Here's my BTT
ReplyDeleteI love my Nook and I can't imagine life without it. It just makes it so much easier for me to have a huge TBR.
ReplyDeleteI don't have one, but I can read books via computer or on my phone. But I much prefer the printed page. :)
ReplyDeleteI read on both my Nook and in paper, and enjoy both. Guess it just depends on how open you are to trying something different.
ReplyDeleteI dont have an ereader either. I'm too old fashioned.
ReplyDeleteI have an e-reader but I feel guilty using it because, like you, I have way to many regular books in my TBR pile needing to be read!
