![]() ![]() Colleen’s excitement was contagious and I recognized that feeling. ![]() I bought Sea of Tranquility after reading that blog post. I think blogs may be my favorite way, especially when it’s a blog post like this one, where author Colleen Hoover gushes about a new author she’s discovered, Katja Millay and her book Sea of Tranquility. I’ve discovered new authors via Twitter, Kindleboards, the top 100 lists, and blogs. If anything, I’m buying more books than ever, but now probably 90-95% of what I’m buying are ebook versions. One of the things I love about reading ebooks is that the books no longer pile up, and you can’t beat the instant gratification you get buying an ebook with one click. ![]() Some of the bargains were too good to pass up. The first time I visited my local library happened to be on the one day of the year they were also selling books. Somehow I still managed to spend money at the library. I may have promised her that I’d look into that. She commented that hardcovers were so expensive, and that I should buy fewer books and visit our local library more. A few years ago she noticed that most of them were hardcovers as I often buy books the instant they are released or the moment I discover them, if they are new to me. My sister has always benefited from this as I usually pass along my favorites to her when I finish. I buy lots of books, in all formats, and they have a tendency to pile up. Like many writers, I’ve always been an avid reader. ![]()
