How many still read a physical book? Just curious....

Due to disease, I must use my tablet to read. I don't like it and very much miss real books.

I stll read a physical book.
The smell of its paper, style of type face and binding, is a tangible experience e-readers can't reproduce.
It's also tied to good memories of rainy Saturdays at libraries among all the physical copies.

@SethGreene531 I adore libraries too! Once upon a time I was interested in bookbinding. As my love of books is that deep.

@Mikla They are wondeful places! 😌

That's really cool! It's a fine art, book binding. There's a company in San Fransisco that still does it the old fashioned way---lead type sets, and all.
Authors can get their copies custom bound.

You'll love this.
Here's one in SF for authors and artists artists: Beautiful and inspiring. I want my first book to be printed here.
