Feels nicer, looks nicer, I can lend it to my friends - and the battery never goes flat just as you get to a good bit. Oh, and I can drop it in the bath and although the pages go a bit crinkly, it will still work afterwards!madwippitthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02595748471651052552noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7780182174577095197.post-18212828706593373752012-06-18T19:43:16.778+01:002012-06-18T19:43:16.778+01:00I was totally against e-readers, but then I caved ...I was totally against e-readers, but then I caved and got a Nook Tablet. I find it good for my subway commutes (and hopefully, plane trips) and generally for taking a ton of books with me without breaking my back. This in no way changes my love for paper books. There are still hundreds of books on my shelves at home, and that won't change. I refuse to call them Dead Tree Books.

Print for bedtime reading (because a page reflects light and my bedside lamp needs all the help it can get), Kindle for travelling.<br /><br />At home (not in bed), I tend to read non-fiction on my Kindle, but prefer novels as paper books... though that might be because I read most of the novels in bed!Katherine Robertshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17196712319655603442noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7780182174577095197.post-53213308251592999342012-06-18T14:45:04.293+01:002012-06-18T14:45:04.293+01:00It has nothing to do with the smell or feel of the...It has nothing to do with the smell or feel of the book. I have a Nook with e-ink, and it's just harder to read on. The ARCs I get on it frequently have to be read in 8 point type, and the glare is bad. For travel, an e reader would be essential!Ms. Yinglinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17805324364289597178noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7780182174577095197.post-90955461471638084542012-06-18T09:58:52.787+01:002012-06-18T09:58:52.787+01:00Good analogy, Jo.

I have just got a kindle and am enjoying it for a) travelling with and b) getting hold of some o/p books that now only exist in kindle form. <br /><br />I have recently read an article suggesting the opposite effect somewhere but I do find the screen/page slows down my too fast and greedy reading which is a good thing. <br /><br />On the other hand, 3D books - as I've heard them called - are far more beautiful and varied and satisfying as objects. can't imagine giving someone a kindle token as a gift!Penny Dolanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16386668303428008498noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7780182174577095197.post-28471980546898934512012-06-18T09:32:43.377+01:002012-06-18T09:32:43.377+01:00Print book for reading in bed, or by the fire, or ...Print book for reading in bed, or by the fire, or in the bath. Kindle for travelling. So I love both!<br /><br />Recent quote from Stephen Fry (on twitter) - something along the lines of escalators not making stairs redundant. Same can be said for Kindle. Not quite sure the simile works, but I can see what he means.JOhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03127111575563904349noreply@blogger.com
