Do you like to read a book via kindle or a actual book you purchase from the store? I prefer to purchase a book, sometimes the computers bother my eyes.

I like buy a book I can hold, same with the news paper and magazines.  I always joke with my mail man because i also like my bills in paper form and sending payments back in the mail.  I tell him i will always need him.

I go to the library and get my books.  They are always willing to order a newer book for me. I have always loved to read, and really could not afford to buy all the books i read nor would i have a place to put them.

I prefer physical books. I have tried e-books but didn't stick with it.

Probably Kindle...just cause it's easier...apparently studies show that people retain more when reading an actual book though which is interesting....

I prefer to read a real book.  I like the feel and smell of the book.  I do have a Nook and will read books downloaded on it because I can get books from Barnes & Noble for free sometimes.

I don't have a kindle so for me it's the actual book, I like the smell and feel of them. My mom has one and I can definitely see the appeal. It's an easy way to carry a lot of books with you.

I like reading books, the ones I can hold and flip pages.

I like the actual book.  I have a Kindle & use it just to pass the time reading when I have unexpected time & get bored.  For "serious" reading though, it has to be a actual book.

I would much rather read a physical book vs reading on a tablet or kindle.

I like physical paper backs but I just recently got a library card and can now download digital books from the library to my tablet ... It is much more convenient.
