    Ebooks. Kindle has a nice display showing how much is left in the chapter. It has a warm light back light, and i can take multiple books with me on a trip (i have some unfinished books).

    I can put down the kindle without losing the page, or having to bookmark it. And i can sideload the books for free.

    Physical books are tempting too as i can get them free at a library and very cheap second hand, but i know i would still prefer to read it on kindle where i can choose the font size I like.

    I prefer ebooks. I like to be able to carry my library around with me. Also, I rarely reread books so they end up collecting dust after I read them.

    I started listening to audiobooks for my commute, and that’s mostly what I stick to these days. The right narrator can make all the difference though!

      Same, I also must read them on an ereader. I’ve tried my phone but it’s all so easy to just do something else on a phone.
