I must confess that only a year ago, the very thought of reading a book on a computer screen turned my stomach. If you feel the same way, read on, because I eventually made some discoveries you might like.
Last year my problem was that I had plumb run out of good books to read.

Well, it didn’t take long to discover that I could download the latest novel of two favorite authors, Preston and Child, as an ebook for the same price as the paperback version. The difference was that I would have the book “in hand” (well, on screen) instantly and pay no shipping charges whatsoever. So I did it and could not get over the fact that ten seconds after paying with my credit card my book had arrived and I could start reading it.
