Just about nothing warms my heart more than when Ihear about a reader getting a toy like this. I'm very excited for you Scify. Kiss whoever gave it to you and take good care of it too! I did not know you were a big reader!

I wasn't sure what you were referring to Scify. So I googled "color nook" and found this:

A reading tablet. Nice! :D I think it will be a fine solution to book storage for you. Hopefully you can back up your e-books to your computer and burn them to a cd for long term storage.
I also admire you for earning the nickname "Scify" and for reading books as much as you do despite your disability. 8)

My parents used to be big readers, and belonged to the Double Day book club. They solved the problem of storage by building a set of shelves under the eaves of this house. There must be over 200 50-60 year old books in there. Many are even older. Taking them out of there and going through them all and then disposing of them is one of the chores I dread having to do should I ever move out of this place. :lol:
I'm a man........but I can change........if I have to........I guess
