Paperback vrs the Ereader
Jan. 20th, 2010 09:16 pmI am getting a chance at a real comparison today. I have two paperback books because Doctor Who and Torchwood ebooks are extremely hard to come by. So at the minute, I am reading Sherlock Holmes on the ereader and breaking it up with the DW book and it is so weird changing between the two.
-Holding- a nomal book is much more difficult than the ereader and having to hold the pages down as I go really annoys me . Also I hate having to make a bookmark, fold the page down or try and remember the number.
The joys of an ereader are boundless, they remember where you are and hold so many books so I can really carry books everywhere with me without bulging my bag out. However, having read paper again the screen's grey screen is very odd to go back to and the pages are not always aligned properly to say nothing of the odd misspellings.
I wish the ereader could -smell- of books because then I would worship the ereader.
