Nowadays, people read on their phones, tablets, or e-readers all the time. Are E-readers really better than paperbacks?

Unbeatable ConvinienceA Classic experience
When you decide you want to read a new book, you don’t want to go out of your way to go to a bookstore, or order it online but wait three days for it to ship. Not only is the transportation of the book worse for the environment, it’s also inconvenient. I get the char of paperbacks but bite the bullet and buy an e-reader already!What’s better than reading a paperback in the outdoors? There is no glare from the screen and no strain on your eyes. What’s more: There’s no chance that it will run out of battery in the middle of the page. You can buy books second-hand for very cheap and you can lend them to a friend when you’re finished.
