i'm thinking of getting a kindle but i don't think i will. i'm old-fashioned and not ready yet.

+ too many books i own/want to purchase, not enough space. e-books are cheaper than real books. convenience. i would probably read more.

- a real book is like a real woman (or man) and you get the 'real thing', a kindle is like a webcamgirl (boy) you can't touch and she's  (or he) just putting on a show for you.

  1. you made a good comparison haha! the only reason i would get a kindle is that sometimes i get to read 800 pages long books and those are not very convenient to drag around (obv i want to read everywhere all the time). but other than that, real book, preferably second-hand with its weird smell, yellow pages and history of readers is a winner for me. x
