Nope, I disagree.I love a real book, I really do - but carrying an e-reader on the train is so much easier than trying to balance a big ol' book on the back of someone's head. Also it means I can take a newspaper and multiple books with me. For commuting and travelling, they're very convenient.

ThisBut having your battery run out is really fucking annoying. But still, only having to take one book on holiday, but that one book containing everything Terry Pratchett, Carl Hiassen and Christopher Brookmyre has written is quite wonderful.
