P.S. I'm always a bit mystified by folks who tell me they prefer "real" books...for instance my whole family. I can just as easily "curl up" with my 7" tablet as I can with a paper book... Plus I can control text style and size and have access to instant dictionaries and the like. I can also read any book I like whenever I have down time.
I prefer my Kindle for novels - my Paperwhite, which I can read in the dark while my husband sleeps, if the best gift I ever got. And now, if I'm ever reading a real book, sometimes I forget and touch a word - expecting to get a definition! Lol!
But I don't like textbooks on a screen. My Kindle is too small for it (I need a large font to read), and I hate sitting in front of my computer screen reading.
My son says he likes the smell of real books. You can't duplicate that with a screen. My daughter likes the feel of the paper, and actually turning the pages.
