I was looking for some new authors and there was an elderly employee walking around and asked her if she had any recommendations and as she was telling me about a series she got so into the conversation i had to stand there for 5 mins and listen to her talk about how much she loves the series lol i almost praised the other employee asking her if she can cover for him

i can't exactly describe it perfectly but it's called the dresden files and it deals with magic and is described as contemporary fantasy/mystery by most people

it sucks the way pricing is going up even for those ebooks, people said ebooks were good because they were cheap which is a lie i see ebooks for like 12 bucks

I try to stick to the cheaper e-books... which becomes tough if you get hooked onto a series and the next book costs a fortune sweatdrop

I buy physical books because curling up in front of the fire with an e-reader is quite the same xD I also love having them lined up on a shelf (collectors obsession...?)
As for an e-reader, I use a tablet so that it has multiple purposes... plus a lot of the free classic books are excellent.
