Book Vs Nook

At first I was pretty skeptical when using an e-reader for the first time. I thought shortly after switching from books to a nook I would want to switch back, but that wasn't the case. Nooks are more convenient to use because you only need one of them and it holds as many books as you want. Also you don't have to go out to a store or library to get a book, instead they are all right at the touch of your finger. Some people argue that it is inconvenient to have to charge your book but the battery life is very good. Another pro of the e-reader is that you can see a sample of any book before you go and buy it to see if you think you will like it. Something that people like so much about real books is being able to actually flip the pages, but the element of swiping the page on the Nook is practically the same.

There are many elements on the Nook that a paper book does not have to offer. You can highlight any word and look up its definition. You may also highlight or add notes to important parts that you want to come back to. Being able to browse through thousands of books while sitting right on your couch is definitely a major convenience to anyone. Also, being able to lend books on your e-reader allows you to share books with other people, therefore saving them money. You can transfer books between any nook without even being with the person. These elements help to enhance your reading and learning in a way that a book has never been able to before. With all of this new technology I believe that paper books are a thing of the past.
