Nowadays, more and more people are buying smart devices like kindles with which you can download every possible book that has ever been written. However, it is a fact that you do not get the same experience by reading an e-book like you would with traditional books. This is why some people say that e-books are way better than traditional books, while others think differently.
On the one hand, reading and e-book is better. Firstly, e-books are more convinient. For example, if you invest in one kindle you can have hundreds of books in one place. Secondly, you are not depending on libraries and bookstores. Therefore, you don’t have to spend time by going into library and looking for that specific book. Sometimes they don”t have it so you have to find another one and you don’t have to have a membership card or pay for it because you can just click on screen.
On the other hand, it is claimed that you get better experience by reading traditional book. First of all, today people spend too much time in front of screen. Furthermore, it is not healthy for your brain and eyes to be in front of screen after you have been looking at your phone and computer whole day. Finally, it is better feeling when you have a physical copy of book in your hands. Moreover, you don’t get that feeling of pride when you turn a new page or come to new chapter.
In conclusion, e-books can be more practical because you don’t have to borrow or buy them. However, having an actual book in your hands is really great feeling that can’t be replaced. In my opinion, traditional books are way better and we should keep them in this digital era for our next generations.
