Geez, my heart goes out to you. That's a real shame.

Forgive my curiosity, but why don't you have a library?

I read this YA book called The Afterlife of Holly Chase by Cynthia Hand, which was inspired by A Christmas Carol by Dickens. Decided to read the Dickens story and loved it way more than The Afterlife of Holly Chase. I plan to read it every Christmas from now on.

Reply to Buying Books on My Phone Has Cured my Reading Slump by Mundane-Cost4076

Same here! I read 10x faster on my phone than hardcover. I still read and love books I can hold in my hand and flip the pages, but reading digitally is a game changer.
