Elin Hilderbrand Quotes

There's a time and place for the Kindle, and I own one now and have books on it that I don't otherwise have. But I don't find that my hand reaches out for it the way it does for a trade paperback, or (in the middle of the night) for the iPod Touch.

I have a Kindle, but I don't like it very much. I like a book.

I read actual books. It's cool to read on a Kindle if that's what you want to do, but for me, I like having a bookshelf.

My bookshelves chiefly function as a snapshot of what I was reading prior to the invention of the Kindle.

I'm a 'bound book' kind of girl. I have a Kindle, and I enjoy it for some things, like convenience or instant gratification, or all the little things that you can do with them.

I occasionally read digital books when I'm traveling, but I do so begrudgingly.

Will I switch to E-reading? I won't, mainly because I love the look and feel of books - particularly hardbacks. I love them enough to put up with the minor hassles of lugging them around and maneuvering them in my lap and having to set them aside while I eat my cheeseburger.

There's been a fragmentation of how the market functions, but I believe printed books are here to stay. People like the tactile experience, the smell of them; there's a great romance to them.

I often read nonfiction with a pencil in hand. I love the feel, the smell, the design, the weight of a book, but I also enjoy the convenience of my Kindle - for travel and for procuring a book in seconds.

I like reading. I prefer not reading on my computer, because that makes whatever I am reading feel like work. I do not mind reading on my iPad.

I am hopelessly devoted to paper. Nothing against e-readers of any sort - anything that keeps people reading is okay by me - but I am not, historically, an early adopter of such things.

Hardcovers will never completely disappear. They are delightful to hold; they feel weighty and substantial. But my anecdotal evidence suggests that the world is changing.

I read books, physical books. I am comfortable with it, I can carry it. It is my habit.

I'm not a massive reader of traditional books.

I like to read non-fiction on my e-reader, but as for fiction, I usually like to have a copy to keep at home.
