Taking the ‘e-book Plunge’

We have always liked to read, since we can remember … and our house is full of books!
While we were both active teachers, we had to do a lot of ‘professional’ reading: reports, school policies, course assignments, etc., along with our reading to keep up with the news.
So it was a treat to find a nice quiet spot and read a good romantic or detective story (for my wife and for me, resp.).
We have been finding the time lately -- and believe me, it’s tough sometimes, even when we’re retired -- to read our favourite stories.
We cased our local book stores, armed with discount cards, exchanged books with friends, and were active borrowers from our excellent Halifax Public Library.
We were enjoying reading books again.
And, presto, along comes the … ’eBook reader!’
What to do, Dear Reader?
