Go get a Kindle like right today! While there is nothing that can replace reading a paperback and I still continue purchasing paperbacks, purchasing Kindle a few months ago was the best purchasing decision that I ever made. I could blabber about the pros but the simple fact is "many books & any book."
I have a habit of reading multiple books at the same time so I am currently down between Anna Karenina, The Cellar and The quick. All of them equally lovely.
Ah, reading many books at the same time, that's got to be a gift :) . I wouldn't be able to do that haha.
Trust me, that's a curse! The worst possible kind :P
