A weekly meme about (mostly) books and reading.

E-volution November 10, 2011

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?

(And yes, e-readers and e-books do come up periodically, and yes, we’ve had similar questions in the past, but things change so quickly … it’s worth revisiting.)

Don’t forget to leave a link to your actual response (so people don’t have to go searching for it) in the comments—or if you prefer, leave your answers in the comments themselves!

    My answer’s changed since last time the topic of e-reading came up – you’re right, things are shifting so quickly it was worth revisiting!

    My post’s up. http://comicreviewsbywalt.wordpress.com/2011/11/10/booking-through-thursday-e-volution/

    Don’t have an e-reader or iPad; interested in an iPad, but cannot see investing more in up-front for an e-reading device than what I spend on books in an entire year. Minus the cost of the device itself, I think it’s safe to say I’d (if only for the novelty) give some books a shot as digital reads. Comics are another factor, but different animal.

  8. To Buy an E-Reader or Not to Buy an E-Reader … that is MY question.
    and I need HELP!

    Good question. I’m always wondering if people who do own e-Readers ever buy print books!

    My BTT

    Happy reading, everyone! :D

    Difficult question for me — I’m something of a purist, but I get their attraction…

    I don’t have an e-reader unless you count the iPhone. However, the Kindle Fire has my attention.

  18. Tanya Says:

    I don’t have an e-Reader and not sure if I want one – here’s my reasons

  19. Lindsay Says:

    This topic has indeed come up recently, but I think I came up with some new comments this time around.

  20. Matthew Says:

    I read my Kinle when I travel. Full answer is posted.

  21. Library Diva Says:

    I wrote about this independently yesterday. I don’t own one and don’t foresee myself getting one anytime soon. They certainly seem to be controversial, though, and I talked a lot about that here at my blog: http://yourlibrarycard.blogspot.com/2011/11/whole-kindlenook-thing.html
