E-books or Paper Books: Which Do You Prefer
Recently, we had a heated discussion on choosing between e-books and paper books.
Some students are in favor of e-books. They argue that e-books are highly convenient. Not only can they save you a lot of space, but they can also allow you to read anytime and anywhere.However, others hold different opinions. They believe that the value of paper books is irreplaceable. Besides providing a pleasant texture, reading physical copies is considered less harmful to eyesight.
As far as I am concerned, both formats have their own merits. The choice depends on personal needs. What I want to emphasize is that we should never ignore the joy of reading itself, but simply focus on the format.
