I am in the reread camp.
That is one of the books I can retrieve from the cloud.
When I was a kid chopping cotton the only thing I wanted from a cloud was shade or rain, either one would be welcome. Now I can pull all sorts of stuff from a cloud.
Who would have thunk it.

Me too.

My cabin at the farm is non-electric. After dark, the only light is the dim glow from my Kindle screen as I'm rooting through my cloud collection for something to read.

Unusual dichotomy.
