September 18 – Read an e-Book Day

nPosted on September 18, 2020

n

n

nThere’s something about a beautiful hardback book…

n

n

n

n

n

n

Large format “coffee table” books are especially
wonderful to own, with their thick paper and amazing
photographs or artwork.

n

n

n

n…and there’s something about a paperback book…

n

n

n

n

Paperback books are inexpensive; they’re easy
to swap with friends and are cheap enough that
you can take them to the beach or pool without
worrying about ruining an electronic device.

n

n

n

n…but eBooks are super great, too! Here’s why:

n

n

n

n

n

n

    n

  • You can more easily read them in dark settings without disturbing others. Watching TV together as a family, reading in bed, reading on a plane when the lights are down and most folks are sleeping – the gentle glow of an e-Reader screen is much easier for the reader AND less disturbing to others than are most other lighting situations (lamps, flashlights, etc.).
  • n

n

    n

  • You can get books from many more authors who haven’t been able to convince a publisher to put LOADS of money into printing and marketing their books.
  • n

n

    n

  • You can get older books that are hard to find even in online stores – including some books that are out of print and WAY expensive in said online stores.
  • n

n

n

n

    n

  • You can get books very quickly downloaded rather than taking the time to go to a library or bookstore, or waiting for a delivery!
  • n

n
n

    n

  • You can easily carry 10 or more books downloaded onto one lightweight e-reader or large-format phone!
