I literally cannot focus when I'm reading online for some reason + I love looking at my books on my bookshelf, it makes me feel smart

I use an e-reader at home with an electronic pen and its cool to be able to underline and make notes with the ability to erase it. Also piracy is cool, I’ve been able to access so many obscure books that I would never have been able to get otherwise. I think those sites are probably the most important thing on the internet really. I read physical books when I’m on the bus or whatever because my ereader was expensive and I’m scared of breaking it.
