I’m a Mac guy through and through, and so when a Kindle iPhone app was announced, I thought I might be ready to look at digital books, but I wasn’t in the need of a book. But the other night, I saw a preview for the next Harry Potter film, and thought it was time to re-read the book before the film is released. So, how about Harry Potter? Might be a good choice as my first Kindle book. Not so fast!

I got onto Amazon.com, created and account and then eagerly went to get the book, but it isn’t available as a Kindle edition. So, it’s a no go!

I like books. I like the feel of paper in my hands, and I like owning books, yet there is plenty of reasons to think about minimizing paper books and increasing digital books. I can’t ever imagine there being no paper books, but I can see a greatly reduced paper library.

I did see a book that caught my interest. A book about Harry Potter and Christian meaning. but it will have to take a number. I’m still reading “Year of Living Biblically” which is a really good read, and have another book in the queue that my partner gave me last month. so, my foray into Kindle will not start yet.
