walkwhilereading: Well you’re out doing your Christmas shopping this holiday season don’t buy one of these.

If they REALLY love to read the joy of new books to read and add to their library will far out weigh the joy they’d have for a piece of plastic that pretends to be a book in sheep’s clothing.
