Continuing books I would never buy in print if I had a Kindle and books I would always buy in print even if I had a Kindle.

If I really, really like reading a particular title as an e-book, then I very well could be tempted to buy a print copy of that book, too.

While I seldom read books-in-print from a library, I have been known to buy books that I’ve already borrowed from the library and read. One example that comes to mind is Susan Fromberg Schaeffer’s The Madness of a Seduced Woman. (Oddly, that book appears not to be in-print in the U.S. but has been relaunched in the U.K. by Simon and Schuster. I wonder what the story is behind that.)

If I really, really enjoyed a particular e-book, then there’s a very good chance that I would acquire a print copy especially if the print version had a nice design…..just like all those people who bought a hardcopy of the newspaper after Obama’s election victory…..sometimes you want the print, too.
