Do you think paperback and hardcover novels are on their way out?

I believe I will always prefer a paperbook to an e-version. I, also enjoy holding and reading it. However, the current e-readers are cutting into the marketplace and 50 years from now, you may gather curious stares if you are reading from a paper or hardback book.

Nope. For two reasons.1: Books in paperform will always be cheaper than a Kindle and easier to replace.2: You can't get a Kindle autographed.

I think they are almost becoming a collectors item! There will always be a market (or at least for the next 20 years) for paper books, because plenty of people still prefer them. However, with the newer generations who are all digital, it's not hard to foresee a future with no paper books... scary!

Nope. Not at all. Same reason why people still buy records.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
