Lucille Benton | 61 comments I personally prefer e-books because of the convenience but print books have their charm as well. E-books go by faster for some reason, they have less weight and take up less space as well it doesn't bother my partner who is a light sleeper when I read at night because I don't have to turn on the light to read an ebook. also, the amount of books I can have with me is much larger than if I only owned print books.
But when reading print books then you have sort of trophies after you finish them rather than just a fuller ebook library.

Lauren | 7 comments I prefer printed books over ebooks. To hold it in my hands, breathe in the pages, sneak peek the ending (because sometimes I cannot stand the suspense) as part of the whole experience of reading is just delightful to me. I dream of the day when I can have my own library filled with beautiful books that I will read over and over again and for my children to have a world of knowledge at their fingertips.

Elaine Howlin (elainehowlinbooks) I prefer ebooks but if I love a book I get a print edition for my bookshelves. If I really really love a book I get the audiobook as well. I love listening to old favourites while gaming or if I have trouble sleeping.
