I'm no literary luddite (反對(duì)新技術(shù)的人).I bought an iPad with my first paycheck from my first full time job after I graduated college.But after two years of reading occasionally on the device,I gave it away to my brother.It just wasn't the right reading experience for me.
Technology lovers choose e-readers over books because e-readers are more convenient.They're right.It is objectively easier to carry an 7 oz.jye.ai with thousands and thousands of books at your finger tips than it is to carry five books in your bag (which is exactly what I did on vacation).
But I don't read for convenience.I read to learn more about the world and myself.I have made friends by seeing a book cover in a cafe and noticing that it was the same title that I was reading.I can trace my life by the books that have been my companions.When I open an old book and come across my previously scribbled notes - shaky ones when I've been reading on the subway,covered in sand if I read it at the beach,next to a train ticket if I was traveling - I am able to add an extra level of personal depth and experience to the story I am about to re-read.It's just not enough to simply consuming the story,which is what e-readers are great for.
When I read paper books,I hold onto them for long periods of time.I just purchased a new bookshelf specially for my "to be read" pile.Once in a while,I go through the process of deciding which books to donate,but usually the idea of parting with a book feels like giving away a part of my soul.
Physical books may not be the most efficient medium,but they are the most meaningful.So keep your Kindle,by all means.But I'll be happy hoarding with my library.
