Life and Books... Wait! Aren't they the same thing?

So I'm just posting an update because I haven't posted in a while.  I am currently reading The Diviners by Libba Bray. It's so good! unfortunately life and this whole "adulating" thing has made it really hard to get any reading time in.

I did go to The Goo Goo Dolls concert last week and that was a blast.  I met them and even had my picture taken with them! They sang almost all my favorites.  They even had a couple songs off of Superstar Car Wash, which is older than me. Lol.  The amount of energy Robbie has on stage astounds me! He never stops moving!


I've also been working more with my horses.  Apollo should be ready for his first ride within the next few days, although he did forget what "whoa" meant at one point.  Barbie and I went for a 6 mile ride last night. It was absolutely gorgeous last night. They definitely keep me busy!

Question for discussion: Do you prefer ebooks or physical books?

For me, it depends on my mood.  I have a lot of books that I have copies in both formats.  I love the convenience of my Nook.  I can go on a trip and have all the books I could ever want at my finger tips, and it doesn't weigh more than a pound. 

Some days, however, I find know greater comfort than curling up with a blanket and a physical book.  Books just have a certain smell that a Nook just doesn't.  I actually came across an article that said the smell of old books actually does have an effect on people.  Apparently, they contain mold spores that act as a hallucinogen.  This explains so much!

So my answer for the question is BOTH!  It all depends on how I'm feeling that day!  I'd love to hear what you have to say.  Leave your answer in the comments below!
