I Absolutely Love Bookstores

There's this one used bookstore down the street from my house, and oh my goodness, it's deadly. All the paperbacks are half priced from the original price, and hardcovers are $5 each.

I spent about $60 in one week on used books in that store. I regret nothing.

There's something about buying used books... They give you this vibe of mysteriousness.. or something... Anyone else gets this sort of feeling when it comes to used books?

I used to, but I can no longer read paper books, because even the large print is too small. So now I read ebooks.

That's sad, but at least you can still read.

Also, remember that ebooks can bother your eyes even more from looking at the screen so long. See if you have the option to change the color of the background where the text is, and have your brightness as low as possible. Also, see if you have the ability to put on blue shade.

@BlackBloodDemon: I have changed the colour and the brightness to suit my eyes and the lighting in my room. I only read late at night, now, unlike when I was much younger and would read even while doing house work or cooking. On the bus, walking down the street, eating. Not anymore. I guess I'm getting old.

@Serenitree: Yea, I can somewhat understand. School takes away a lot of my time. I really only see myself reading during my lunch break now a days and on the weekends. In the past, I used to read 24/7.
