a question for gift-givers -- paperbacks or ebooks?

[Karen]

I'd greatly appreciate some input from those of you who give books for the holidays: do you give ebooks or paperbacks? If both, which do you choose more often? (I'm planning some not-too-numerous social media posts about my books and need to decide which purchase links to include.)

Thanks!

I have always preferred to give paperbacks (hardcovered to family and very close friends), and while I have often exchanged e-books with other writers, I have never felt like giving them to anyone as presents; although I suppose it probably wouldn`t be that big a deal.

I’m a paperback girl through and through. I feel it’s more personal to own a book, than some electronics x

Paperbacks do seem to be the better seller for the holidays.
