19/365 Reading

As mentioned on the post on day 1, I've always wanted to be well learned, well read and well travelled. While the last one will take ages to get completed and the first one is one of the most difficult thing to do, I plan to start the second one at the earliest. Having said that, I would want to start to read as many books as possible. Ideally I'm a fan of hard copy books. I love the smell of it, the feel of it while having it held on hands etc., However, it is unbelievably expensive to purchase hard copy books.

Why do you want to purchase? Why not go to the library?, Yes a good one indeed. I've registered myself as a member at the local library, but, in case I like a book and want to have a copy for myself to read it later, I can use the library book.

The biggest issue with such books are the logistics nightmares when you move from one place to another. Also as a person who recommend sustainability, I'd prefer not to have a book printed. Instead, have the ebook. I've been wanting to have a Kindle for me as it's much more easier to access with loads out books loaded on it for a much lesser price. I have requested my friends on my birthday to gift me one and a dear friend Sinthu had purchased me one. I'm currently traveling in US and will get the Kindle on my hands tomorrow. I'm really excited and looking forward to start to read more because it is important to read and learn more if one wants to be a better human.

Thanks and much love Sinthu :-)
