I’m putting in floor-to-ceiling bookshelves for my living room today. I mostly read e-books on my Kindle, but I have an affection for old paperback pulp books from 60’s and 70’s.
So I go to ebay and buy “lots” of them fairly cheap, not caring about the titles. Sometimes 10 books at a time. Now that I’m retired I plan to read every single one, even the bad ones. I have the equivalent of a small home library of them now.
How many fiction books do you all read? E-book or paperback. But not interesting in audiobooks. I’m curious about physically-read books.
My phone has killed my reading habit to the point where I feel shame.
You can always start up again. We belive in you!
I have a Kindle, but I will always prefer physical books. Recently, I have mostly been reading nonfiction, but I’m feeling the urge for some fantasy.
I’m a big fan of betterworldbooks.com for used books.
Thanks for that link. I’ll check it out!
I read about one book per week using the Kindle app on my phone. I find books as I go, so I don’t really have a TBR list.
That’s awesome. One a week! I need to catch up!
Ebooks are great. Libby is the reason I am able to read as much as I have
In high school I was a big Tom Clancy nerd. I played Rainbow Six games and having a book all about all the gear and training and planning was AWESOME to me
Last year I finally got around to The Hunger Games books. I liked them quite a bit and now I get the hype. When they first released the people who went crazy about Twilight recommended them so I ignored them haha
Now I’m on book two of The Expanse and I really like it. It strikes a nice balance between geeky believable world building and good storytelling.
Funny you mentioned the Hunger Games. I never read them until I took a job at a middle school last year. Every single classroom had rows of them on the bookshelves. So I grabbed a few. They are really good books! I get the hype now!
About 3 a week, I like to read in my sunroom on cloudy days
Love that!
