RE: Online books: my way of getting more knowledge

in Hive Learners2 years ago

For the past few days, there has been a topic of past and present comparisons going on in the Hive, which has me thinking a lot about our previous lives compared to our current lives. Or rather, they make me avoid thinking about it. 😊 I know there are people for everything, and age alone doesn't have to determine a person's preference for something. But I still think I belong to the previous generation that prefers paper books to e-books.
All the arguments you present are valid, but in this day and age, aren't books even a form of escape from the screens we're in front of all day anyway?
Btw, please add the source link for your first picture, you probably forgot it.
Regards

😁😁 you are just like my sister, she prefers paper books, I had to convince her a lot before she started reading ebooks, and sometimes I feel she is old-fashioned. I must confess though, whenever I visit someone who has book collections, I can't help but fall in love with their collections, nothing can really beat the smell of new books and the beauty of cover pages, but I prefer ebooks because it allows me to read a book without going to the book store😁😁.

I guess they are. Books help us escape from screens, especially these days since almost all of us are glued to screens but then again ebooks give us more options of books to choose from. Paper books as fewer side effects but I guess am too much of the newer generation that is addicted to ebooks😁😁

Btw, please add the source link for your first picture, you probably forgot it.

Thank you so much @soulsdetour I thought I added the link and going to do that right away, !luv
