Importance of physical books

I can't write on an ereader page and that alone makes me prefer physical books.

Also do you think the act of physically turning the page can help concentration?

I don't like scrolling through a neverending wall of text. I need to turn pages and see how thick is the clump of pages I read through that day.

Also, shelves of books are aesthetic.

You can take notes

I've never cared about the "experience" of reading physical books but if you prefer reading them just do it, unless you want to save money or take advantage of things like implemented wikipedia or dictionary

If it wasn't for physical books, I would have never started my semen collection

i have too many paper books, have switched to digital.

It motivates me to keep reading. It also makes you look smart when people come around, especially girls.

I just find it harder for some reason to read ebooks

I wish I could read them just as easily as I do physical books because I really don't have a problem with them otherwise and they are definitely more versatile

For me occasionally running my finger under the sentences I'm reading helps focus my mind, and I can't do that with touch screen e-readers

I get what I can find in my ereader and the rest in physical books. I live in a dorm and don't feel like carting a hundred books around.

What are sticky notes?

I prefer physical books

However, the best ereader I have ever tried was a first generation kindle that I bought for 40 bucks

It's honestly the next best thing

I've never used an ereader and I don't wanna

I only fuck with physical books. Gf got me a kindle 4 years ago read one thing on it never touched it again. Threw it out like a month ago. I dont even read articles online. Just check email and see what you turds are up to. Fuck screens they rot your mind

motivation tbqh.
i've downloaded hundreds of books online and i dont think ive read one of them. for whatever reason having physical books motivates me to read them more

get an ereader without touchscreen? Old models are great for this, they also don't have background lights for more authenticity

Yeah, I think this is different when you actually BUY the ebook, but again then you can just buy a physical book
