Do you prefer eBooks or physical books?

I've tried eBooks, and they do have some advantages, but I just can't get into them. I always go back to physical books. I love having a collection of real books, being able to feel how much I've read and how much I have left, not to mention the smell :)

I prefer paper books. Nothing beats that smell of ink and dust when they're old lol.
And I like to look smart when people come over and see my clutter of books lol.

I do like real books, but they just pile up. Have gone to e-book. I like it. You get books right away, a little cheaper

Physical books
The feel and smell<3<3
It also reminds me of times I read books to or with my kids:)

I agree completely, and I read only real books.

@Settembrini And I'm now reading a physical copy of "The Magic Mountain" and finally understand where your username comes from, Herr Settembrini. :)

@SW-User That's great! One of my favorite books...

I agree. I’ve tried digital books, but it’s not the same as physically turning a page or being able to gauge how much you read by the thickness of the amount of pages covered.

Yeah, I like the smell of real books too. I can't give that up even though I don't mind reading ebooks.

Ebooks, but I love te touch and texture and feeling of having a real book.
But I just only read ebooks.
