I saw this tag on @wanderingwithstacy's channel!

Here are the questions- let me know your answers!
1: What was the first e-reader you ever owned? What were your reasons for getting one? Were you a reluctant convert or an eager one?

2: What kind of e-reader do you have now?

3: Do you read digitally on multiple devices or always on the same device? If you use multiple, how do you decide which one to use?

4: Do you still use physical books? If so, how do you decide which format to use?

5: What is something you dislike about your e-reader?

6: Would you ever ditch physical books completely and become a sole e-reader user? Why or why not?

7: Where do you get your e-books from?

I am a physical book reader only except for sometimes listening to audiobooks (which is new for me over the last two years). I don’t usually enjoy audiobook fiction, unless I’m simultaneously following with my eyes or I’ve already physically read the book. I mostly listen to nonfiction, memoirs, etc. I have Libby and Hoopla on my phone but just for the audiobook access. I can definitely see how some scenarios it would be wonderful—traveling minimally, nursing a baby, physical limitations, etc.

I don’t like reading on my phone and it’s super rare that I ever do. I like using my Kindle since I can use airplane mode for Libby books and not lose them when it’s time for them to return. I also like the screen/light options that are better on my eyes and don’t bother my husband. It’s my pool reading source since it’s waterproof. The only problem with that is getting a high temp warning like you might on a phone, but it doesn’t take long to cool down with a case.

I typically read my kindle at night when my husband is asleep. Libby is a real good source to use

I only use an eReader when reading library books through Libby and Hoopla. I just use a ten year old Amazon Fire kid tablet. It has worked great, especially since I can use Hoopla on it.

I love real books, but can appreciate an e-reader, for on the go. A library full of e books is just not as satisfying as a real stack of books that you can see and feel!

I love the smell and feel of real books, but I mainly read on my Kobo Libra Color. I wanted to get out of the Amazon ecosystem and color on my e-reader, so I switched to Kobo a couple weeks ago. My tip would be to play with your settings! Make sure you have the font and screen color you enjoy. I have horrible vision, so a warmer light and larger font tends to work better for me. My Kobo goes everywhere with me, because I too hate reading on my phone.

There’s just something about opening an actual book that I love so I will always prefer physical books. That said, I don’t mind reading on my kindle. I had the keyboard kindle for over 12 years (give or take lol) until it went to be with Jesus and I got a paperwhite 2 years ago. The biggest complaint for me is I miss the buttons on both sides because I’m a lefty 😂. I appreciate the ease and convenience of a kindle for travel for sure.

I have a couple of ereaders Kindle and Kobo. I usually read a different book on each ereader, I treat each ereader like a separate physical book. I love them both but usually I will check to see if a book is available on Kobo and if not then I will purchase it on my Kindle. The only reason I purchased a kindle is because 1) I got it on sale at half price years ago and 2) some authors are exclusive to Amazon. I prefer physical books so not sure I will ever become solely an ereader. I am trying to purchase all new books on my ereader but so far I have not been successful at doing that, it is a work in progress. I don't know how long you have had your paperwhite but if the battery is not lasting long that is a sign that it is time to get a new one. On the home screen on the top right there should be a battery indicator to let you know how much battery you have left, it is easy to ignore or forget to check.

I wish I could help. My kindle sits dead on my bookcase. I could charge it but meh. I have the kindle app on my phone which I sometimes use. I prefer audiobooks myself. But I’m getting new reading glasses so maybe that will change

I prefer audio books (with a British accent is great!). Then I think I like physical books slightly better than Kindle. But I always travel with my Kindle. I’m like you, I read only on my iPhone if necessary. I unsubscribed to Kindle Unlimited. So many choices!!!
