Comments on: Reading Report Says: Books In, Kindle Out http://usedbooksblog.com/blog/reading-report-says-books-in-kindle-out/ Sat, 22 Nov 2008 04:44:39 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.2.1 By: Bev Owens http://usedbooksblog.com/blog/reading-report-says-books-in-kindle-out/#comment-3711 Bev Owens Sun, 22 Jun 2008 13:48:41 +0000 http://usedbooksblog.com/blog/reading-report-says-books-in-kindle-out/#comment-3711 Being an avid reader of dusty old books for about 50 years and having raised two children who became avid readers (there is a lot to be said about leading by example!), I am encouraged that today's children still prefer the printed page over a computer monitor or hand held device for their reading pleasure. I can see that there is a market for both the books on printed pages and the newer technology of eBooks and digital books. I will always prefer grabbing my 'current read' and curling up in a chair or on my bed and being whisked away into a new adventure. It just isn't the same staring at screen for me. Besides, when the power goes out; I can always pick up a flashlight and read the printed page to pass the time away. I sell used books at my website: http://www.aturnedpage.com and on my blog I review used books, give bios on vintage authors, and list the top 10 best selling books by decades.
