📚 A Personal Answer To The Lack Of Space For Books

Recently I noticed the ever decreasing amount of space in my home for more books. As a result I decided that I may have to obtain an electronic-reader. This was a difficult decision for me to take as an avowed 'Luddite' I had railed against such electronic paraphernalia your years. I decided that I would use the electronic reader for only light fiction books where intensely focused reading and note-taking are not the need of the hour. I searched studiously trying to find an electronic reader that met my needs and budget. During this time I remembered that a close family member had died a number of years ago and had left behind a third generation Kindle. I went looking to find the unit. After finding the reader and trying to bring it back to life I realised that its battery had given up a long time ago. Since then a new battery has been procured and I can report that it is working well. As a side note the reader is so old it cannot purchase books from the Kindle store. I am not intending to buy from the Kindle store so that is not a problem. What I am intending to use the reader for is to read fiction books that are in the public domain. In this manner I hope to reduce some of the space that books take up in my home. If you have the same problem how have you resolved the situation?
