On the other hand I also love my Kindle. It has helped me save so much space in my room. I used to have boxes of books. I'm one of those people that doesn't want to let go of a book once it has been read. I want to keep it in case I want to read it again one day. The Kindle lets me hold on to books while not having to sacrifice floor space. And as much as I love a good thick book, it does tend to hurt my wrists after holding them for a while. My Kindle also has an adjustable light built in so I can read no matter how bright or dark it is where I am.

That said, though, i prefer reading later in the day (read: very late) and since my parrot is inside of my room, i can't have the lights on...so it's either sitting in a kitchen chair or an ebook. I honestly like both!! Physical copies in the room certainly remind me to read more, too. And i have these cute little fake sproutling page markers...so i can't choose.

And I find it is far more convenient for annotating!

Me too! I also find that e-books can induce headaches, so I prefer a physical book.Gabsterella_bella wrote: ↑18 Jul 2019, 23:08 I LOVE the feel of paper. I just love being able to hold a tangible book. It makes me feel smarter and more accomplished to have the tangible book in front of me instead of using a tablet or an e book reader. I have a Kindle and an iPad, but it is just not the same. I don't think I could ever fully switch to a virtual e reader due to the fact that I just love the physical book so much. I also love seeing the collection of hardcover or paperback books come together. There is something so satisfying about it. I also get headaches quite easily from the lighting which makes the physical book more appealing to me as well.
