I caved . . .

Well, in spite of my previous post detailing my doubts as to whether to get an e-reader, I just got a Kobo Glo for my birthday. The amazing thing is . . . I'm excited about it! I also got this cool faux-book cover for it, in an old Pride and Prejudice design, which eases some of my tactile worries about it. It looks cool! So, I've been setting it up, have purchased my first ebook, and started reading. I think this is going to stick, but I was also going to blog a couple of times a week, and we all saw how that worked out!

An unexpected bonus: Free ebooks! I went through the list they had and downloaded a bunch of classic reads that I didn't have on my bookshelves. I found many classic titles by the Brontes or Dickens, and since those titles are right up my alley this was an exciting find! Going to set up my lending from the library online as soon as I pay my $9 fine (oops!), and then I'll really be off and running! Now I can fit in with all the "cool kids" at work with their fancy kobos on night shifts!

So, I'll let you know how this goes, and how well I like it. So far, so good! And thanks for reading this, I know it's been a long time since I posted. Here's to trying new things, and good blogging intentions for the future!
