Which is better the e-book or good old fashion paper books?
Such a debate.
Something that has divided friendships, ruined families…okay maybe not
that far, but some people have gotten heated over this topic. Which is better for reading an ebook like the
Kindle or Nook or old fashion paper?
For me personally, nothing can be better than holding a book
in my hands. That new book smell (I know
I am that crazy woman who sniffs books at Barnes and Noble) or the feel of old
books. There are times when I find an
old book that I cannot help but run my hand over the cover and pages. Or just
flip through the pages to hear the sound they make. Now I do have an e-reader. I was given a Nook as a gift and I do enjoy
reading some books off of there and have gotten some books free for it and
downloaded a few from my local library.
Holding an e-reader is a lot different, turning pages are
different. I spent 8 hours a day or more
looking at a screen for work, so sometimes it is hard for to keep looking at a
screen for leisure. I also don’t want to
take an electric into a bubble bath with me that just sounds dangerous for my
wellbeing don’t you think? But there are
advantages to having one; it is easy to take places I know I will be waiting
like when I get my oil changed.
Sometimes carrying a big huge book into a garage is bit difficult
sometimes so having this little thing makes it so much easier.
SO I would say I am on the fence while I still love the feel
of having actual book in my hands, seeing my shelves full of books and books
everywhere in my house, the little e-reader does make it easy sometimes. So what do you all think which is better?
