It’s funny to look at the books I’ve bought in my life- there are loads as I am a ‘book person’.  I don’t go for the current trends in books but just whatever catches my mood at the time.  I have a LOT of books and have donated a lot of them over the years.  Marc is the same way.  There are always some kind of self-improvement book in the mix – gardening, cooking, making money doing this that or the other thing.

Now that I buy ebooks – I find they are augmenting my purchases and not supplementing. It is like that with DVDs as well- buying streaming movies is super simple and all of us get to watch together or on our own devices.

I’m not sure what’s next with this evolution but I’m certainly curious.
