Being a voracious reader since childhood I have become accustomed to reading books on paper.Apart from the fact that you can carry your books to your bed or under a tree or even while travelling, what makes me favour books on paper is the fact that I need not sit in front of the PC the whole day.My imagination seems to come out better reading fiction on paper than while staring at the screen.
It also helps to know that I need not sit rigidly on my chair whenever I feel like reading a book.With a paper book in hand I can lie on the sofa, be on my bed or in the train or wherever I want.They can also become great gifts or fond souvenirs.
Someone suggested buying a laptop so that one can take it wherever he pleases to read.Well besides being way too expensive , I think it also involves a greater strain on your eyes and body as a whole while using it.
