Ebooks vs. books: Why are ebooks better?
- They are much more portable than physical books, so you can carry dozens if not hundreds or thousands of them around with you on a device that weighs less than half a pound.
- You can download them in a matter of minutes so you don’t have to wait for them to be delivered if you ordered them online.
- You don’t have to go to the store to buy them.
- They are never out of stock because they are digital files.
- You can get many ebooks for free from Project Gutenberg, Amazon, and your local library.
- Ebooks often go on sale, so you can get bestsellers for $1 to $5. You can follow BookBub for deal alerts.
- They come with fun features like sharing highlighted quotations on social media, looking up words in the dictionary as you read, digital bookmarks, and much more.
