Exactly! I know what you guys mean. I always prefer reading a paper book to electronic. And I don't have a kindle.
Still, although I have some 30 books, 90% of the time I want the books to be from the library, used books, or electronic. Because nobody is reading the 30 books in my house (besides the few I may be reading). Just being practical, it's a waste of trees for everyone to have their own book at home (besides a few exceptions). Might as well go to the library and share them, or just read an electronic version -- otherwise it seems a waste of resources; something I'm especially aware of when I move them to a new place. While appreciating the importance of books, writing and learning, I personally want to avoid buying new paper books.
