I already have the digital copies and just need to get round to reading them (badly need some kind of non-laptop e-reader!!!). They look like great books.
Kevin says
Haha. I don’t like reading ebooks on laptops, myself, but maybe a tablet would be ok.Thing is, for the price of one I could buy 30-40 books if not more 😉
Forest says
Yeah I know right! I go to a used book store and pay $5 per book (bear in mind I am in Egypt so getting imports here) but get $2.50 back for returning the old book…. $2.50 a book, that is 50 books before the e-reader is paid for. I don’t read fast enough to justify it yet!
