Yes. With an ebook reader, I can now not read the 500 books I carry!

I mean, there are just too many to choose from!

That's the reason I don't bulk upload books to my Kindle. Because I know I'll be spending way too much time thinking about what to read next. Instead I only acquire books when I'm done reading one or close to it. And I only get more than one when they're in a series.

I do the same with any kind of queue, put stuff in it then never follow through because there are too many choices.

I worry about my rather irreplaceable ebook reader. So sometimes I don't bring it out of fear for its safety. I should have a hard shell built for it.

Irreplaceable? They don't make it anymore and can't find a suitable replacement?
