I Don't Discriminate

Written word of any kind...


I love it in all forms.

Do you have an eReader or do you prefer paper books?

Or are you a two-timer like me?

Terry said...

Oh, I'm a two-timer like you. Whatever happens to be closest to me. I often have 2 or 3 books on the go at a time as well.

I love reading a real book. There is something lost to me without the feel of the binding and the pages under my fingers. I like my e-readers - but I LOVE my books.

Definite two timer here. I find that with real books I'm far pickier about what I purchase. With the free options for my Kindle, I'm more adventurous with my selections.
I swing both ways, book and ereader.

I fell in love with my Kindle!

I'm an equal opportunity reader!

Wait - do you wear reading glasses?

Rebecca @ My Girlish Whims said...

Sheila said...

e-reader all the way baby!!!!

Becca @ R We There Yet Mom? said...

Totally two-timer - depends on what I want to read and what form I find it in!

Lol! A two-timer . . . that's me! I don't have a Kindle, but I have the app on my iPhone. Yeah, it's a little small, but it's so convenient. I always have my phone with me.

Cara Smith said...

Two timer all the way. I have shelves full of hard covers that I cannot part with and hundreds on my Nook.

I also like being able to go the the library and not paying for new books.

I prefer real paper books. The kind you can earmark the pages with. There is just nothing like real books. I do have an eReader, a Nook Simple and I can read fine with it, I just prefer the hard stuff ;-)

Sarah Kate said...

I spend enough time looking at a computer/phone screen - when I read, I want to do it the old-fashioned way. :o)

Connie Weiss said...

I use my iPad and my iPhone for reading but sometimes.....I want a real book. Like this next week....taking a REAL book to read on vacation.

My iPad will be keeping littles busy in the backseat anyway.

Em said...

i hate reading from eReaders. i'm a die hard old fashioned smell and hold the pages of a book. in fact, there's nothing i love more than smelling books in a bookstore. :)

Steph said...

I'm a paper kinda gal. I like a real bookmark.

I dig your glasses.

McVal said...

3 in my family have kindles, but I don't. I so rarely have time to read anymore... it's not worth it and I could grab one of theirs if I wanted too. I guess I'm a page turner.

samantha said...

Had no clue you were a two timer. Suprised this hasn't spread throughout town! ;) I haven't branched out into electronic world yet.

Colleen said...

Total two-timer. And I don't just stop at books and my Nook. Magazines, blogs, cereal boxes. If there are words on it, I'm drawn to it.

Meg said...

I don't like reading on my kindle fire....but it's great as a 2nd computer in our house when my husband and I don't want to share the computer ;)
I love my old school kindle and regular books...the kindle is great for lying down though because you don't have to keep pages from falling in your face.

Allyson said...

Bwaahaha. I'm only a two-timer with the massive stack of books that I had prior to my Nook. I figure that just because they are paper, doesn't mean I shouldn't read them. But can I just say how convenient it is to have something backlit while lying in bed at night? If they could figure out a way to backlight a book, I might just go back to the old world reads. OK, yes..there is that silly little book light but it's so heavy and it doesn't illuminate all that well...and...shall I go on?

What are you reading now?

Krystal Melissa ♥ said...

PAPERBACKS! :) I love to hold a book, turn its pages!

Not So Simply Single said...

Paper books, I wouldn't have it ANY OTHER WAY!

stephanie said...

I have to have a paper book- I can't do the e-readers

Mindie Hilton said...

I prefer a real book in my hands but I do read both, love the savings for online books. So yes I guess I am a two timer :)

Date Girl said...

I'm a two timer, but I prefer my books. One great thing about the ipad though is I can read in bed without disturbing Match, since the light is low and I can turn it to face me.

I have a massive book collection. There is nothing better than picking up a new book, smelling it, feeling it, studying the cover pic.

E readers are good for travelling especially on planes when you don't have the space to take a hundred books.

I don't have a kindle, kobo, sony reader etc, but I did just get my first iPad last week and have already downloaded my own two books onto it. They look so pretty sitting on my iPad bookshelf!

I'm in love with getting kindle books and audio books from the local library. It's the best service, ever!

pinktutu72 said...

I follow you through bloglovin and when I clicked on the link to your blog I was looking down and reading my kindle. We have the same cover!
I love my kindle SOOOOO much!! Nothing beats being able to take approximately 1500 books with you when you camp or go on a road trip. Though I still love books. I love the smell and feel of books :)

Karen Peterson said...

I just got a shiny new Nook Color for my birfday and I am now officially a two-timer. I love 'em both!

hotpants™ said...

I love my Nook Touch, but still love a good book with actual pages too.

The Random Blogette said...

Where the hell have I been? I freaking love your new blog design. I guess I need to stop reading your blog in the emails only and actually click through and comment. Sorry I suck.

And by the way, I wish that I had a reader but I just have books, which I never have time to read anyways. Le sigh.

Kelley @ TheGrantLife.com said...

I dont have time to read.. is that sad? Thats so sad. I have a nook.. that I use as a tablet and for my toddler. Thats sad too. Sigh.

Lourie said...

I am deprived....I only know books. But I think if given the chance...I would love the other way. :)

Mrs. Petrie said...

I love that I can read in the dark with the iPad. And I can get awesome free digital books through our library.
