I only read on my kindle and yet I have a room full of shelves overflowing with physical books. Most of the justification for those books and shelves is so my kids have a place to wander into and browse around if they want something new to read.

Alas, I have yet to get them to show any interest in browsing the shelves. My daughter reads all the time but isn't interested in "old stuff". I'm holding out hope that she'll get to it when she's older. I recently told her that as far as I'm concerned there are no age limits for books and she can read anything she wants, that seems to have made her a little more curious.

It's my quiet little sadness. My love of Tolkien and Holmes and golden age mysteries and sci-fi is all due to the books scattered throughout home. I'd like to share those with her but I know that I can't push it.
