Iβve discovered the REAL reason why physical books are better than books on the phone: they donβt make me want to puke after a 9hr reading marathon π€’

Real books: can stack up to stand on to reach high shelves; can insulate your home; can make you appear well read to visitors; provide a hiding place for physical objects ; don't make you look weird in a signing line
I've read many books on my laptop which I always considered less than desirable so why on earth would anyone ever do so on their phone? Reading a news article on such is bad enough.
Yeah, they make your eyes hurt after about 1-2 hours. You would think with all the modern technology they have packed in there it would be the first feature they put in.
The most underrated thing about physical books is that you always know where you are in the story becuase you can feel it in the weight of either side of the book.
Iβve had an embarrassing number of e readers in my time and none have ever replicated that feeling

Thanks for your opinion though. There is a big difference to some of us bookworms.
Have a good day.
