I wasn’t a bookworm. Until this lockdown. During the lockdown, I read so many books. I never thought I would read until my parents forced me to do so. I will always prefer physical books rather than e-books.
So now, I love to read books. Recently my sister asked me, why don’t you read e-books that are easier than the physical book, you don’t have to wait for the delivery of the book? The book amuses me. I like physical books because they give us a touch of old ways.
Nowadays, e-books are readily available on the internet or social media platforms. E-books are more portable than physical books, and we don’t have to go to the store to buy it.
We can download the e-books in hundreds or thousands of them on our device. And e-books weigh less than a physical book, and we can download the e-books in a matter of time. And you don’t have to go to the store to buy it.
