It does sadden me to see the decline in books being read as I look around during my morning commute each day. Technology is taking priority and the traditional methods of receiving information is becoming somewhat “uncool.” Holding a book in your hands, smelling the crisp book smell and supporting an industry  in need gives no greater feeling of satisfaction. I must admit, I do own an iPad and I do love all the great tech savvy-ness that comes with it. But nothing will ever compare to the timeless, classic book. It is all about the experience and some of that experience is lost when holding an electronic device instead of a real book.
