You should consider both, as I. Leatherbound copies as collector's editions. And to read on special occasions, like on Thanksgiving Day, when things have quieted down, in your favorite recliner by a crackling fireplace. Turning pages in a book is still my preferred.

Ebooks represent convenience. And practicality. I have all, all of my favorite authors works on a single tablet. Wherever I am, no matter the location, park, beach, city, state, or country, if the need to read arises, I have print on hand. Plus you can copy/paste from ebook.

Son, your mother says I have to hang you. Personally I don't think this is a capital offense. But if I don't hang you, she's gonna hang me and frankly, I'm not the one in trouble. —cthia's father. Incident in ? Axiom of Common Sense

There is something to be said about enjoying a bound book. The heft, the feel,and the smell of fresh ink and paper, these are things that the modern age apparently seems to have forgotten. A quiet afternoon, with snow or rain falling, a warm cup of your favorite beverage, and your favorite Author in your hands.

Priceless.
