It's hard to say. I've been reading ebooks for the past 15 years or more, so comparing how much I read now with how much I read (say) in the 1990s probably says more about changes in my life than paper/ebook.

I think I probably do read more now. If only because I never have to find the next book I want to read - I have a vast array to choose from immediately available in my already-purchased-but-not-yet-read pile (my TBR).

While I used to haunt second hand bookshops to find my next read. Perhaps Amazon and Abebooks have changed that even for paper books.

[Edited to add: I almost never buy paper books anymore.]
