Icyshard's (Never)Boring Blog of Banalities: Large Print Books http://www.icyshard.com/archives/2008/03/large_print_books Comment Feed for Large Print Books en-us hourly 1 2000-01-01T12:00+00:00 Large Print Books http://www.icyshard.com/archives/2008/03/large_print_books For my bookclub's next reading selection, I put a hold on the selected title at my local library. There were several copies available, and I thought I was requesting one of the regular copies. However, when I went to pick it up, I noticed that I was given a Large Print version! Maybe I requested the wrong one (I had several windows of all the available book options open), or maybe the wrong one was grabbed, but it is what it is and the end result is that I have this particular edition.

It's weird reading pages where the words are so big. Not since those learn to read kid books have I read anything with such large print. On the good side though, I definitely don't need to strain my eyes to read the words, and could probably even read in almost total darkness! Another plus is that there are less words per page, so I feel like I am getting through the book faster because I am turning like 5 pages a minute or something! Hmm, maybe I'm on to something! :)
