Becky,Lioness and Bookysue, thanks to each of you for the recommendations. I love the tactile feel and experience of actually holding books and turning the pages so did not go the e-book route but appreciate what a fine service they offer. Our local library has a wonderful Friends of Library collection of continuously donated print and electronic material Our many volunteers, receive, sort and shelve thousands of donated material for sales throughout the year. What a great time to be alive and to have so many varied opportunities to experience great books, music, art and visual tours along with our cyber friend "connections". Thanks to all who share here.

Glad to know I’m not the only one who feels that way about real books! <G> I am also someone with significant insomnia so reading paper vs a bright screen at night is a no brainer. I have an ereader my daughter gave me but I basically only use it on vacation.

@fiesty76 Our local coffeehouse has shelves full of used books, plus a few games. We can no long go in, browse, sit-and-read, draw/craft while having a cuppa coffee. We can get a hot or cold drink for take out. Think I will call her to find out if I can come in to browse for 10 minutes and get some books! Support our local business. Of course, there are over 300 books on my e-reader already, but...
