I’m always disappointed to hear that people print out e-books to read because that defeats one of the great benefits of e-books: reducing the amount of paper used and trees cut down. However, printing out an e-book and reading it is much, much better than the practice of printing thousands of books that are destroyed without ever being read. At least the trees sacrificed for you to read an e-book are put to good use.

Of course, I’m always happy to hear someone is a book fanatic and reads a lot.

I understand about the difficulty of reading on the screen for long periods, though it’s easier for me to read on the screen than in print because I can adjust the font to make it easy on my not-so-good eyes. However I prefer to read on my Kindle or eBookWise reader than on a computer screen.

I much prefer reading e-books than reading print. And printing out the books is such a waste of paper. But I’m glad you’re reading them any way.

I am enjoying Read an E-Book Week as I find free e-books from other authors and publishers.

As Shadows Fall is on its way to you in e-mail. Hope you enjoy it.
