Millennials Are Out-Reading Older Generations
I still like regular books. I've got a catalog of books on kindle since Amazon has 1 free book download per month but I haven't found one that kept my interest.

Amazon Delivery Problem
It's very expensive to have to reschedule a re delivery. We usually include the name and address of the neighbor in our delivery confirmation when we leave it with a neighbor. This is one of our most last resort delivery methods. We're going more and more to rescheduling deliveries. As the delivery business has increased exponentially and there are more reported cases of theft of delivered products this also opens the opportunity for unscrupulous recipients to claim non delivery to get a second delivery (Hopefully a very small percentage but never provable in the case of product left at door). So that possible recipient fraud combined with actual thefts are reducing the numbers of deliveries we leave when no one is home. I just had this conversation this morning with my delivery manager. As our cost of replacing missing product increases we will minimize our exposure by leaving an attempted delivery note followed up by phone contact more often now delaying the recipients more immediate pleasure of getting it sooner. We're a major US city Florist delivering 100's of orders a day.

Just ordered paperback ($10.99) + tax on Amazon Prime. Getting it Monday 12/3. Thanks for the recommendation. Great (over 4*) reviews on Amazon.

Amazon Delivery Problem
Your parents need to report the non-delivery to Amazon if they haven't already. Somebody needs to get the delivery service involved. I own a delivery business of our own products so we eat it if our delivery personnel delivers anything to anyone else other than the recipient. If the delivery company says delivered to a neighbor they should have a signature of who signed for it.

I love a man who loves books as much as I do!
I'm definitely over 100 books per year if not close to 150. I love to read and for me it's almost entirely an actual book in either hardback & paperback. I buy a few books but also patronize the library.

Time To Forgive Spacey?
I've always enjoyed his work as an actor. I'm suspicious about the magnitude of claims against him. I'm sure many were willing participants in hopes of gaining his favor in hopes of furthering their careers especially those who's careers never really took off and now desire any fame the notoriety of being one of his "victims" brings. I'm not saying he's blameless, but there aren't any proven facts to know for sure.

It was interesting to me. As someone who spends $2-300 per day on internet advertising I often wonder if I'm getting enough bang for my buck.

Bill Cosby sentenced to 3 to 10 years in state prison for sexual assault, deemed a 'sexually violent predator'
https://www.yahoo.com/entertainment/bill-cosby-sentenced-3-10-years-state-prison-sexual-assault-deemed-sexually-violent-predator-182219288.html Justice or not? Bill Cosby sentenced to 3 to 10 years in state prison for sexual assault, deemed a 'sexually violent predator' Judge Steven T. O’Neill rendered the decision Tuesday, the second day of the sentencing hearing at the Montgomery County Courthouse in Norristown, Pa., saying, “I’m not permitted to treat him any differently based on who he is or who he was.” O’Neill also ruled that Cosby is a “sexually violent predator” and fined him $25,000. The sentence means that Cosby, once known as “America’s Dad,” will spend at least three years behind bars and then will become eligible for supervised release, although that’s not guaranteed. According to journalist Bobby Allyn, who was in the courtroom, the judge will not grant bail, and the comedian is expected to be taken away to a cell shortly.
