I vastly prefer traditional books, but time and tide wait for no man, so I've ventured into reading via an e-book app as well. I'm reading Mansfield Park on the kindle app on my iPhone, and though I miss the feel and smell of the book pages, I did notice that I can fit a greater number of books in my purse this way, which is a definite plus!

Hi, i'm currently reading the bell jar by Sylvia Plath. on an ebook reader, i wear glasses and it's no fun because if i stare at my phone for so long my eyes get teary. i just wish i had more hard cover books but then... more books are easily accessible and cheap too in this format. and every bibliophile's dream is unlimited access to books so i can say i hate or like ebook readers i'm just stuck in the middle.

I'm reading a variety of novels, but mostly thrillers, all on my phone! I've installed the Kindle app for .mobi files and the Lithium Reader app for .epub files. I think both of those apps are pretty similar, but I prefer Kindle a bit more just because it's not as bare-bones as Lithium.

Right now, I am reading the Case for Christ by Lee Strobel in legit book form. Well, I noticed I literally read most, if not all, books traditionally. I may have read one on my mom's Kindle a few years back, but I never finished. :? I'm Winnie, Piglet, and Tigger in my icon.

I read Kindle books on a Kindle app on a laptop hooked to a flat screen TV. The TV sits at
the foot of the bed. I don't have to hold a device and can comfortably read lying down. I'm currently reading some books about making money online. while I have access to three good libraries, I find I end up borrowing free to read books from Amazon more than half the time.

I used to have paperbacks until I brought my kindle. I'm now glued to it. I find it very convinient and easier to read on. Saves on space as well.
I'm currently reading The Butchers by Hatie French

I currently finished my hard copy of The Belles! I do have a Nook Classic e-reader, but it is almost 6 years old and is quite slow. Also, Adobe Digital Editions is truly awful. So, I usually end up reading books on my phone, which makes it rather difficult to read. Also, I recently fixed my old Android Tablet, which is about the size of the 7 inch Kindle Fire, and hope to be able to use it to read epub and pdf files. I can't use the Kindle app on there though as it is simply too old.
