Let's talk now about pricing e-books now, like why in the world a Kindle edition is ever more than the paperback. . .Rustyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11209150671200557517noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7119990365479009764.post-15275579016805802642018-07-12T12:53:32.327-05:002018-07-12T12:53:32.327-05:00I pretty much only read books on my phone, now.

But I always tell my authors, a print book is more likely to get my attention because I constantly see it sitting there on the table, screaming my name. <br /><br />I've never really thought about which I read faster. I know that I enjoyed the e-book experience much more once they made it possible for me to turn off the "data" at the bottom (early Kindles did not allow that). Something about seeing what percentage of the book I have read and some useless page location designation really distracted me and ruined the reading experience.
