Is there an option for both?
I love my paper books, but I love my kindle too! There's something wonderful about being able to carry 40+ books with me where ever I go.

While an ereader is nice for when you're traveling and can't carry too many things, I find that I just can't enjoy reading off a screen as much as I do reading from a physical book. It actually detracts from the reading process - I've noticed that I'm less likely to continue reading a book for hours on end and get completely sucked into it if I'm reading off a screen instead of a printed book.

I prefer paper books, but I probably read more e-books these days

As a bibliophile, I LOVE to read physical books, but since e-books are taking over, I do read those too. I DEFINITELY prefer a nice physical book to curl up with.

I've used my mom's Kindle before, but I still much prefer paper over e-books. I just think they're less hassle...you don't have to worry about charging or wifi and all of that. Just pick it up and go. Plus with some books I sometimes like to just open to a random spot and read a few pages. That's not so easy with an e-reader.

I like both.....I like the weight and convenience of ebooks, but like that I don't have to recharge a paperback to continue to read.

I just like the FEEL of paper books. It just seems right.

I like both but I enjoy my e-reader more because it is easy to carry and you can bring many books with you / i just moved and the books were a pain with an reader they are all their but i will still use both.

Paper books for now. But someday I may be an e-book convert.

eBooks! I can carry twenty books on a Kindle that weighs less than my phone. And no bookmarks!

I'm a proud Kindle owner. I like Kindles since they weigh a lot less than books.

I prefer paper when it's in my hands. But digital is hard to beat. I have only been reading all digital for a while now, even comic books.

I'm with you there! The smell and feel of a paper book can't be outdone by an e-reader, ever. I prefer paper books, all the way!

I definitely prefer ebooks. I'm kind of a tech person, though, so that may be have something to do with it.
