So Many Books,so Much To Know Options

whew...I'm a point where there are so many books i want to read and so little time.Each time i read a new book on the occult or spirituality it leads me to another book or branch of knowledge i need to learn.I wish i could just put my head onto a book and miraculously absorb it by osmosis or something...you know?

I haven't scanned any of my books onto the computer, but I have found a few sites that have a lot of ebooks for free that have many different subjects and categories. Even here on this site we have a library of ebooks. I bought a kobo last year and am using it a fair amount. I'd say half of the books I read these days are ebooks. They do save on shelf space and I just bought a new an external with 2 terrabytes of space. I have purchased a few ebooks, but mostly I get them for free. If there is a particular book that I'm lusting for and can't get at the library or want a copy to keep permanently then I will buy it. I do love books. You have to do more than read books to learn a skill, but books can be a useful adjunct to practicing by yourself or practicing under a good teacher. There is always the danger of only reading books about a subject and never practicing enough to develop yourself.
