Believing Game Part A

I believe that paperback books are far better than electronic reading devices for many reasons. When you open the cover of a book and flip through the first few pages, you are feeling what the author of the book wanted you to feel; the smells, the pictures, everything. When you pick up an electronic reader, you do not get that same feel as you would with the actual book. With a paperback, you can take it virtually anywhere. There’s no need for Wi-Fi or an outlet, all you have to do is crack open the book and begin. Unlike electronic books, you can take notes and highlight passages for discussions and for studying purposes. If you were to drop a paperback there would be no problem with the book. Whereas with an electronic book, dropping the book could end up scratching it, cracking the screen, or even break it for good. When a friend asks to borrow a book you can just lend it to them, but with an electronic reading device, you would be lending your entire book library. Which in that time period, you may have to access other books in it while it’s still being loaned out. Also, books are great memorabilia, especially if you get it signed by the author. Unfortunately, the author of your favorite book cannot sign your electronic copy. For these reasons, I believe that paperback books are far better than electronic reading devices.
