I’ve changed my mind about this. ebooks should make more sense, but people just like paper. And why not? We spend so much time in screens it’s nice to have things that are physical.
Well, I like a mix. Stuff that is searchable is nice for non-fiction, especially tech stuff. Being able to change fonts and font size is nice too, but I agree, a smallish paper book is better to hold.
I had a Kindle for a few years, but I like paper books. After a long day at work, it's nice to relax with something that would survive a coronal mass ejection or nuclear EMP.
Unfortunately, the modern world is such that when the IT goes down the only use you will want for a paper book is as something to, well, kindle a fire with.
