  • Interesting, I'm the opposite. When given a real book to read, I find it annoying that I don't have a Kindle version.

    In no particular order, I always miss:

    One handed reading.
    Built in night light.
    Built in dictionary.
    Search of the book to find previous passages.
    X-Ray to figure who the fuck a minor characters is.
    Audiobook integration to listen whilst cooking or ironing or driving etc.
    Reading on phone when out and about with no bag.
    Buying the sequel the moment I finish it.
    Wondering where to keep the thing when I've finished it, or recycle it and feel like a book burner, or forget to take it to the local train station book exchange again and again and again.

    Probably more.

  • All of that makes it sound like the logical choice. Maybe it’s just habit?

    Anyone else stopped using their e-reader?

  • I wouldn't necessarily say I've stopped using it but I have a lot more purchases recently that are paper books opposed to ebooks. It depends on the type of book and whether I think I'd like to read through it again...

  • Went through a period recently of 'borrowing' from charity shops and the local library, always go back to the kindle though as I find it so convenient
