agreed, books are sooo expensive, but I found a cheap alternative to going to free little library and thrifting if you ever want physical copys

i think i prefer physical copies because sometimes reading on a screen just hurts my eyes, idk maybe it's just me
physical copies. it's harder to pay attention to on-screen or audiobooks. also i just love having something physical
physical copies for two reasons. one, i find that it’s easier to read and two because having a physical copy in your hands is so much more comforting.
both! but ofc the feeling of a physical copy is always preferred.
i prefer the physical book one!!
I prefer the eBook because it’s lighter and you can easily carry it with you wherever you go, even if you’re currently reading a huge book. Plus ebooks are less expensive than physical books. These are the two main reasons for my preference, but there are other advantages as well.
physical copies even tho they get expensive when you buy a lot
i wont read a book if its not a physical copy its js not the same yk?
Screeeeen!!! I haven read a book in years. When it is in my hands, ey became a job or homework. With ebook I have read 18 books in 5 month. Never in my life. I'm so happy
And you can change book in a second I mean it's great if you are not used to read just one at a time. And I read in English and Spanish so having the dictionary just right there is the best.
I only read physical copies! It can get expensive but I love seeing all my books on my shelf
physical but sometimes e-books for reading at night
Both for me, I do prefer having a physical book but I read a lot of series and sometimes when I'm ready for the next book the physical copy is not available at my library but the ebook is and I don't like to wait.
I looove physical copies of books because I can showcase them in my room but I got an E book reader for Christmas& it's great when I'm travelling so I don't have to bring all my books with me!
physical copiesi get distracted with books on screen plus physical books just hits different
Physical because its just a completely different reading experience for me. I also like reading as a break from my phone...
physical! but I read heartstopper on screen & some more on webtoon and I didn't hate it
physical, although I do use my kindle often
I prefer physical copies, but I don't mind read on screen.
I prefer physical copies but I use online ones more often for free because then I can read it without buying it. One of my Christmas gifts was online books that they paid for for me, even though I found free ones in like five seconds. But at least I get to read them.
I do both. Definitely prefer physical copies, but I also own an E-book and I love reading on it.
Physical thought I find myself reading digitally a lot because my family always go on trips and I don’t want the book to get dirty
Physical!! Digital would make my eyes hurt and I love to turn pages 😂
i used to be a physical copies girl until i moved to a place without good public libraries n buying lots of books is only for the crazy rich, so i'm converted to an epub reader... but it's true when ppl say that they read faster on screen, it's difficult to explain.
i prefer reading physical copies of course, but I rarely read ebooks if I can't find the book I want to read

personally, I prefer to read on my tolino... it's easier to read for me
Reading physical books r always love and the experience is much much better but I keep some books digital aswell just in case I am out or waiting somewhere where I want to occupy my mind with something or I cant take my physical book somewhere so digital books come really handy at times like those
I prefer physical books more but I read more ebooks because they're cheaper.
physical but i do want to try digital one day
i prefer physical books, no specific reason thoit just sucks when i don't have access to a light source, then i'd prefer an ebook
I mostly read book on screen but I love them both and i’ comfortable with both
I read both, physical and digital copies, but I prefer reading a physical copy. I find it a little bit hard to keep myself motivated while reading an epub.
I’m gonna be honest, I noticed I prefer digital. Though I still love physical books. I tend to lay down when reading and it’s awkward holding a physical book. also it’s easier to annotate and highlight with digital books in my opinion.
both have their benefits: physical feels more immersive and impactful. plus, they are great for display purposes.
ebooks are more convenient to access + carry around. but your experience can be affected based on the size of your device. plus, there are so many free books u can get on amazon!
all in all, i love reading through both mediums. for me, it truly depends on which version provides the cheapest/most accessible copy.
