[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I remember basically sinking into a depression every summer.  (I was one of the kids that didnt go to camp, and probably read about 10 books a week, but even though I love reading, it makes me depressed to do too much of it.)

I hope the libraries at least open up.  We're spending a ton at Barnes & Noble and Amazon now and the older ones are re-reading everything.  We're doing some overdrive books too, but it's hard because everything else is on the screens so it would be nice to have some things that arent on the screens.

I am amazed that you have gotten this far without buying Kindle. Im' a big fan of paper, but this has been the only thing between us and the abyss the past couple of months. You can get ebooks from the library (including any library system you used to have a card with or your friends/relatives have cards with). There is a lot of demand but if you get on the wait/holds list, your books do eventually become available. Also Amazon Kindle Unlimited and Amazon Free Time are both $8 or $9 a month and have a lot of great books. They also have a ton of bad books and it's hard to sort through the way they have it arranged, but some people have made lists of good stuff on there like:
