QOTD! 4/18/13 Book Lover Style
I have to ask... I think I may have a year or two ago, but I know a lot has changes since then as technology has evolved. I, personally, was one of the "I'll never convert to digital," because I love the feel of a physical book.
I know there are a lot of media options converting to digital, so we'll just stick with books.

I think it may be partially due to the fact that I'm a nerd kid who's always wanted to be a librarian...

Ditto. The thought of reading on the Nook bothered me for some reason, now I love it. I used to get cramps in my hands from holding paperbacks open for too long.
I had to read a paperback book the other day (Nook was forgotten at home and it was bo-ring at work) and I griped and grumbled about it!

50/50. We have very little room left in our place for physical books. I read really fast so our collection piles up quickly. I buy physical books 1/2 the time.

Yeah I was a book hoarder, too. I started bringing them into the book exchange at work. I don't have room (especially after moving to a SMALLER place! ) for all that crap. I wonder how many books I have DLed on my Nook... tons I'm sure.

QOTD! 4/18/13 Book Lover Style
i'm mostly reading physical books now. working on getting stuff out of the house, so i'm reading what i already own.
as far as what i'm preferring... i'm really enjoying my kindle fire and how it doesn't weigh any more to carry all my books with me

Re: QOTD! 4/18/13 Book Lover Style
Our extra room/guest room has been turned into a library for me because of all my books. I just can't part with them. I can't get onboard with a digital e-reader thingy...I keep wanting to, but I just can't do it.
I love the smell of books. Ahhhhhhh.

I'm all about the Nook! The only time I read physical books is if I'm at the beach/pool because I can't read my Nook in the sun.

Love the feel of a real book, but love the convenience of my kindle. So, I do read most books on my kindle, but for certain books that I know I will want to keep forever, or that have pictures (like biographies, etc), I will get the physical book.

Re: QOTD! 4/18/13 Book Lover Style
I have a kindle that I use just for the internet.... I haven't read a book in a while but if I did, I'd probably go for an actual physical book.

I used to hate the idea of digital books, but now I don't have any interest in anything but a digital book. I love it.

Re: QOTD! 4/18/13 Book Lover Style
i get most of my books on digital due to space issues. (i have three bookshelves two rows deep. dh is ready to throw me and my books out of the house)
if i really like a book, i'll get it in paperback (the kind i re-read when the mood strikes me)
HOWEVER, all my favorite authors i now buy in hardcover. I figure it's something i plan on keeping for a long time so i'm willing to spend the money.
