To read and the variety of reading devices available are now populating the new age of literated people. The option to have a new breed of written material in digital formats is too practical to be ignored, even for us that growth using just ink and paper.
I have used the kindle app since 2010, first in my computer and more recently in my phone. It is very nice to have access to my library at any time, however the paper and ink books are still my preferred format to read, but the convenience of have access to some texts everywhere is just too convenient to be ignored.
The other app I use to access books is audible, and I have read books using it, that I may had not read otherwise, and I have been taking advantage of the commuting time, the otherwise is "wasted".
Any way or the other, I encourage you to take advantage of the many digital options to continue reading, or to start doing so, if you have not been an avid reader yet. They may be an alternative, a back up, or even a replacement of ink and paper books; either way they are here to stay, and we should wisely use them.
