Title: NIV Thinline Bible
Review: I've loved my 1986 copyright NIV Thinline Bible since early 1994. It's been my primary study Bible and the Bible I've most used in my sermons, Bible studies and small groups. It's text font is easy to read -- even standing at a lectern in less than perfect lighting conditions. I was expecting the same font readability in the 2011 version and looking forward to the updated translation/paraphrase. However, the 2011 thinline NIV is not as readable. The font appears to be thinner with perhaps lighter inking than the 84 version -- not nearly as readable. Preparing a product for an aging demographic with a less readable font does not make sense to me.
Is the review positive or negative?
