After all it begs the question, should I invest in an E-reader? I mean, just in case all books spontaneously disappear! If so which one? I am leaning towards the NOOK by Barnes and Noble in case you were wondering, but I really love to see piles of books on a table waiting for me to pick them up and enjoy a moment or two. How will that work when all I have is a NOOK and digital files? While I do have to admit, I am running out of space in my smallish home for books and fabric and a NOOK would be much more portable than a 1000 page hardcover novel and would be much less likely to leave a mark when it falls in my face upon my falling asleep. I still long to look through shelves of books to find new treasures or to find a copy of a history or quilt book at Amazon for just a few cents. It just isn't the same downloading a book as opposed to receiving one in the mail. For that matter what is the future of the mail system...oh don't start that again! That my friend is a subject for another day or not.

These are just a few of the books I have waiting for me and I am sure there are so many more eagerly awaiting my finding them on the shelves of my local bookstore or library.
Yes, here too I have to practice Focus, Focus!
Those books look good! I would love to get a Kindle--I don't know that the Nook would work in Ireland and the B&N staff couldn't answer my questions about it last time I was in the US. I was sad to hear that Borders is closing--I loved going in there with my discount coupons!
