Weigh In Wednesday #2: E-book Vs. Print Book!

Weigh In Wednesday is a new weekly meme hosted by Lauren @ Epilogue!

This week's theme: E-book Vs. Print Book!

I definitely prefer print book. I also read ebooks on my laptop (I don't own an e-reader & I'm not planning on getting one), but most of them are e-ARCs & of course some of the books & novellas that aren't available in print, but I prefer a physical copy. I am actually quite a fast reader, but I read even faster from an actual book than an ebook, and there's nothing like holding a book & turning the pages (I sometimes even hug my books, when I love them a lot - LOL I can't believe I just admitted that) anyway I also love watching the books on my bookshelfs (yeah, it might sound weird, but I love staring at them sometimes & thinking or planning what I'll read next & I can't do that with ebooks), and I also love rearranging them, I do that often, so yeah, print book & if it's hardback even better - too bad they cost too much & I have to choose which ones I'll get in HB & for which I'll have to wait for PB editions, but that's whole another theme ;)

  1. Print seems to be popular, I love to look at them on my shelf too! But I prefer my Kindle.

  2. I hug my books too, that's completely normal. (Because how could it not be?)

  3. Yeah, you're right about staring and admiring books in the bookself, ebooks can't replace that feeling!

  4. I haven't jumped on e-Reader bandwagon yet, but I see the practicality of it - now way I have enough space for as many books as I want to read. Also it makes traveling that much lighter. So maybe one day!
