Q:
What is your preferred reading format? Hardcover, eBooks, Paperback etc?
A:
Well to be honest I like them all, although I like them for different reasons.
Hardback:
Because they look pretty on my bookshelf.
E-books:
Although I said I would never get a E-reader I LOVE my Kindle! These things can
be dangerous to my book buying habit.
Honestly how many of us can get little trigger happy? It makes it so easy to just
click and buy a book.
Paperback:
If I just HAVE to have a physical copy of a book this is the cheapest way to
go. Plus in my opinion it’s the easiest. They are light and easy to carry, just
throw it in your bag and go.

Ha! I swore the same thing and I can't believe how much I love my Kindle too! That one click buy button is going to get me in serious trouble though LOL. Happy Friday! Old follower

Hopping through. I bought my parents a Nook even though they said they'd never use one. Within a month they bought a second one for my mother and live off of it.

I just love the look on people's faces when they see my bookshelf. They literally ooh and ah over the hardcovers, but who wouldn't blame them? They're so pretty! The only downside is that they're so expensive! And eBooks are sometimes waaaaaaay more practical than the physical copies! New follower btw!(:

I love having the physical copies, but eBooks are so much more convenient!

The kindle is seriously wonderful and dangerous! We won't even talk about how many books I have on there I haven't read yet! I'm a Southern book blogger too and already a Bloglovin follower. Here's my FF post for this week-hope you'll follow back.
ReplyDeleteGood answer. Happy weekend :)

I totally agree - I used to avoid ebooks, but now I have a Kindle, I can't stop buying them! It's like an addiction!

Helloooo! Great answer. :D
ReplyDeleteI do still love paperbacks, and always will. I love seeing them, smelling them and being around them. They bring me calm. When e-readers came out I was totally against them, but now? I don't mind so much. It makes my life easier especially when one is reviewing (where highlighting is concerned), but if I've truly loved a book, I will also purchase said book in paperback. I have to own it - physically!

Kindle's are dangerous! I spend a lot of money in just a short amount of time on books. It's a conveniently fast and easily accessible way to obtain them which is great and all but I still prefer to carry around paperbacks. I also love my bookshelves :) Great FF!

-Seirra @ Dear, Restless Reader
I don't go anywhere without my Kindle! I only converted earlier this year. I've always loved the feel of holding a book in my hands and the smell of a new book. But I reached a point where my husband and I have enough books to need a separate room to store them making my office look like a used book store! I love discovering all the self published writers, and some tend to publish in ebook format only.

:D I'm like the opposite of everyone else. I've always wanted an eReader even though I like physical books better. ;D

I prefer hardcovers because I get so annoyed when a paperback comes in the mail dented. Even the smallest dent bothers me so much and I love how hardcovers are harder to damage. New follower :)

Good answer! I can't even remember the last time I bought an actual paper copy of a book. I don't have a large house so the eBooks solved a lot of space issues for me!

I totally agree about hardcovers looking pretty on the shelf, yet its so hard to find them in the UK when a lot of the time they just bring out mass market paperbacks. I never thought that I'd buy a kindle but I caved this month and bought one! I love how easy it is to buy a book and not have to wait around for delivery (I'm very impatient when it comes to books) Old Follower, have a nice weekend!
