What’s your preference?…I download some books to my iPhone through the Books app but most of my material consists of physical books…I can see the advantages of both but lean towards the physical book experience…what say you?
 
I have an iPad and the Kindle app is good for reading. A phone is a little small, but most tablets are a good size for reading.

I think I prefer electronic - I have an entire library of books at my fingertips rather than having to go sort through my bookshelf.
 
I resisted ebooks forever until my wife bought me an e-ink ebook reader. I loved that thing. I have read some books on my phone/tablet, but I don't like it as much as the e-ink.

Audible is king. :lol:
 
I like the electronic format for a number of reasons but Heather and I read some of the same books and it's easier just to let her read the physical copy after me...

If you buy on Amazon, you can set up a family library to share books. Not sure if you can both read at the same time though.

interesting...I may check that out...she's not a big fantasy reader but we share a love of Stephen King...she more than I...she has everything he's written and is in the process of getting the entire catalog in hardcover...she's about 3/4 of the way there...
 
Physical books all day. I gave e-readers a shot but just couldn't get used to them. I also read the physical books by the light of a whale oil lantern.
 
Physical Books, also audible for car trips downloaded to phone or tablet. Have tried some kindle books on the tablet, kinda like it.
 
The kindle app on my iPhone for the most part, sometimes my kindle. Audio books on overdrive app; sometimes via audible if I can’t wait

Mostly kindle books from all the libraries I have a card to (7 local cities/counties). If you’re not using library ebooks you’re wasting $$$ friends
