bookswiping, a gamechanger

Swiping on a smartphone means to change content if you have seen enough or don't like it. With paperbooks that seemed impossible. Till I had the idea to cut my books in small pieces. A new world opened up for me.

This technique gave me a lot of advantages:

1. advantage: The pages were always close to me when an occasion of reading came up e.g. in the supermarket line, check-in, train, plane and so on.

2. advantage: I could carry many parts of books with me and I could change to another book if I didn't like it. Pages I had read I junked asap so I always knew where I stopped the last time. I call this technique the 3-R Method Rip Read Recycle
