    The "I'm still reading this book two weeks later while waiting for my kid to get out of school" selfie.

    I do the same thing. I intentionally show up about 15 minutes early so I can have my reading time.

    I mostly do it so I don't have to wait in a moving car line for 15 extra minutes. Getting there early has a benefit, lol.

    Took me a little while to commit to reading this, it’s huge.

    Here's my library. No shame. I used to collect books, then I moved a few times.

    I probably still have a thousand books or so, but after moving so many time in the 5 years, I have converted a fair number of them to kindle format. All my new books are for my kindle. Greatest invention, I carry all my books with me and can even use a different device if I don't happen to have my kindle with me.

    Yep, this is the direction I've been going as well. I still prefer the printed copies for reading, something about holding an actual book in the hands. But, the convenience of electronic format is unbeatable. Especially when one is reducing the amount of stuff they own.

    Rather than a Kindle device, I use the Kindle app on my phone or tablet.

    I can't imagine using any device, I love print so much. The weight, feel, smell... All of it adds to my experience.

    Do you access MFP from this magic papyrus thing as well?

    I still read mostly books (probably 95% books, 5% e-read). I figure that as I get old and decrepit I can use the kindle and make the type bigger as I require.

    When accessing MFP I prop my phone up in a book that has been stored with sweaty gym socks.
