People need the freedom to explore all kinds of books. To deny people the freedom to explore and read takes you back to Hitler's NAZI regime.

Given the videos these kids can look up on their phones; why on earth would you worry about what's on the printed page.

Nothing like a good book to get cozy with. I buy mostly used books cheaper and easily disposed of . pitched into a "donation box"

Holding a book evokes very happy memories of my childhood spent in libraries. I have 2 e-readers that I only use when I travel and a book takes up valuable space in my carryon.

There's nothing like holding a book in your hands, opening it, with the scent of printed pages, especially a brand new one! The excitement of turning the page in anticipation, not always knowing what happens next, or where the story might be headed - you cannot get that from an electronic device.

I listen to lots of audio books while cooking or treadmilling. (But when I read with my eyes, of course I read paper books as nature intended.)
