A Book is a Book.

I caved. I tried so hard not to, but it was just too tempting. I own a Kindle, but I'm not proud of it. The stubborn English Major in me struggles with the idea that print is dead. I refuse to believe that people will stop buying texts completely, because I know I won't. But the day has come where I have finally realized that my life is too precious. Yes, I mean my life. The San Francisco Municipal Transportation system has put quite a damper on my daily reading activities. The crowded buses that I take to and from work usually provide me with questionable life threatening moments. Let's do the math. With one hand on the bar above and one hand holding a large hardback novel, how many hands does that leave for turning a page? None. So when you get to that moment in your book when nothing will stop you from reading on, the only thing to do is risk your balance, take your hand off the life-supporting bar and flip the page, hoping to God your crazy bus driver won't pull a fast one on you and aggressively slam on the brakes. Believe me, falling on passengers on the bus isn't a great way to start or end your day. So inevitably, this little device that lets you hold and flip the pages of thousands of books with just one hand will save my life. I'm not proud of it, but the Kindle is my new best friend.

What's your take on this digital revolution? I'm keen on print, but Kate Spade does make adorable covers for any reader of your choice, if you were wondering :) Hope your weekends were fabulous! Mine went too quickly, so I am already looking forward to our next 3 day weekend ahead! Happy Monday! xx
