Counterpoint.

I think ebooks are pretty great. I'm a voracious reader. Non-fiction (primarily tech and history) and some science fiction. I usually have at least one of each in-process.

It took a bit to jump from paper, but I was coding in the 80s, and switched from working on printouts to completely on-screen. I was an early adopter of ebooks when they appeared - on multiple devices.

However, you are limiting yourself with e-readers.

My preferred setup is a medium (8") OLED tablet with a reader app (Moon+) that lets me choose whether I want the formatting the book came with - or use my own. I use another app (CalibreCompanion) to mirror books from my main collection onto my portable devices. Moon+ synchronizes reading position between devices, so I can use a phone (really a phablet) to read whatever I'm in process with when I get stuck waiting at the... well wherever.

I used to always have a couple of books with me so I could do this. having everything in my pocket is better.

I still use paper books - but "coffee table" sized photography books (looking for inspiration). Those mostly stay on the (oversized) shelf - and I've gotta say, compared with a high res OLED, printed artwork can be disappointing (I find myself paying more attention to the print/screening process than to the actual art - the way a click in a recording can take you right out of the music).

Oh, if you're also reading on a tablet, try light color text on a dark background. Easier on the eyes. I still sometimes use green font on a black background as a sort of reminder where I came from... :-)
