I still have some hardcover & paperback books at home, but only read e-books now. I tried to read a paper books recently, and found it cumbersome. I wanted to adjust the text size almost immediately. That never really bothered me before I got an e-reader. Also needing to sit near a lamp. I use a lighted device so that has not been a problem since I started e-reading. I am spoiled by e- readers & tablets for reading now. I will keep the hardcover & paperbacks that I have for sentimental reasons. I don't have that many anymore. The rest of my library all e-books, that go with me where ever I go.
