Well, it's true I like to touch the book. It's perhaps the only way in which I'm a little kinky ;)

Advantages and disadvantages. It is hard to page back and find something. But I don't have to wait to get the book. And I can make larger type which is easier for my old eyes to read.

I know authors (and probably publishers) have mixed feelings.

Thanks, Joe, for all your support. Good to see you're a Kindler -- like it, do you?

[Joe Barone]

Good news. I've read two of the three previous ones (and have the third one ready to go on my Kindle). I'm glad to see a new installment in this series.
