I prefer books. Sitting intently to just read and flipping the pages has a very unique feeling!
Love my Kindle since my childhood — when I started spending most of the budget on 10 books per week, they just bought me ebook and subscription

Paper books are the best. But I have to convert myself to digital reading also for space reasons, using a Kindle for storing the stories I wanna read is absolutely indispensable for me - I read up to 10 books a week, and live in a 45 square meter house. 😂
For the moment, I keep buying and keeping physical books that are very close and important to me, also rare collections.
In short, let's say that this also leads me to make a very careful evaluation of what I read and make choices on the type of book. (And everything that doesn't fit in my house I keep on the shelves at my mother's house, in the hope that sooner or later I will be able to take back 98% of my books left there)
Even though I might be in tech, I still prefer old-fashioned books! Like most people, I love the smell of a new book, and the physical feeling of holding one, swiping the paper with your fingers, is such a great feeling! Yet, I have to say I still carry around Kindle around me, as it's more convenient.

I prefer e-books, if I want to feel nostalgic then I will pick up a regular book.

Books.
I believe the experience of holding and reading a physical book offers something unique compared to e-books.
When it comes to fiction, I'm all about paper books, but for professional use, electronic ones take the lead. They're more user-friendly, making it a breeze to find what you need quickly. Plus, the beauty of having an e-book always within arm's reach is a game-changer. At JetSoftPro, a top-notch software development service, we've published two e-manuals, and the feedback has been fantastic, not just for the content but also the format. Sharing this so you can also experience the convenience!

books work just fine! the downside that if you having too much then you need some bookshelves for it

It's always the hard copy for me! For books, nothing can replace that feeling engagement and concentration. It's really cool to be with yourself and just the book, no distractions ✔

Yeah, I'm in favour of audiobooks too.

ebooks of course
I'm an audiobook person. It's nice having the e-book although, staring at the words for an extended period puts me to sleep for some reason.
Paper books and I can't do anything with it. Ebooks are great but I love holding a real book and turning pages.
Paper books are >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> ebooks
Paper books - the smell, the feeling... However, sometimes it is annoying to carry them around 😅
