Sounds like an interesting read, but I ended up getting the hardbound version for $15 instead.

I love the idea of an e-reader, and my Kindle Oasis is chock-full of books, but, for whatever reason, I rarely actually end up reading anything on it. I can't explain why, it's legitimately weird, especially since I'm constantly on my phone reading Wikipedia and various and sundry research papers, but some part of my brain is just very intent on rejecting the format ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Anyway, for anyone without a broken brain like mine, you can't really go wrong here at that price point.

Just FYI, I bet there are dozens of us. I much prefer audiobooks to my kindle. I can listen while I do yardwork or drive. I feel like I rarely have time to just read a book, even though, like you said, I read stuff on my phone all day. I also have physical books right next to my bed to read at night, but rarely work up the motivation. Therapy session over.

This guy's a real jerk who leaves or gets canned from everywhere he works because he emulates Steve Jobs negative characteristics religiously, not realizing that Jobs succeeded in spite of his negative characteristics- not because of them. He knows this reputation precedes him and has ensured his Wikipedia entry is thoroughly sanitized.
