I'm a senior in high school and I don't think that books are dying. Most students can't afford a Kindle, or don't want it stolen. Most students realize that it's harder on their eyes to read from a screen instead of a book. Students are the future of our world, and until every school in the nation starts buying Kindles and other eBook readers, books will still be around. The only time I read an eBook or a Google Book snippet is when I need to do research and I don't feel like lugging around a book. I think -fiction- books will continue to be made from trees.

Love reading your blog, Michael, we've used a few of your posts as discussion starters in my Service Leadership class.
