Nick's Random Gibberish is a weekly post here at Nick's Book Blog where I, Nick, will talk about random topics from personal posts to discussion posts. Hi guys!  Today's Nick's Random Gibberish will be different in that I'll be talking a little bit about my journey during blogging. As you can tell from the title, as of today, I've been posting for 3 long years. Yep, 3 years. I, myself, can't believe that I have stuck through this hobby for so long, but I'm so proud of what I have accomplished throughout this journey and honestly, as of now, I'm not sure I'll ever stop blogging.  I started blogging one random December day when I was completely bored and had nothing to do. Before I decided to start my blog, I was stalking a few people around Goodreads and their blogs. If I have to name one specific blog that really pushed me to open my own blog it has to be Wendy's blog, A Cupcake and a Latte, which is unfortunately, no longer in existence. ...

Nick's Random Gibberish is a weekly post here at Nick's Book Blog where I, Nick, will talk about random topics from personal posts to discussion posts. Hi guys! I hope you all in the US had a great thanksgiving and the rest of you had awesome weeks as well. Mine was pretty great as well and I still feel stuffed! :) Today I'll be talking about how I personally think ebooks are superior to hard copies. Wait, wait! Don't throw your shoes at me yet. I know a lot of you probably like reading hard copies much better, but while I used to be among those, I've found that I'm no longer as fond of hard copies as I previously. Source Here are some reasons why I love ebooks better:  1. Cost of ebooks v/s hard covers  We all know that ebooks cost a lot less than hard covers and you can even often many ebooks on sale.
