    I prefer reading digitally bcz of convenience and note taking . For example I read Manga or comic type books or non fiction in iPad 13 inch and novel in iPad mini . But I grew up among books and I always wanted a bookshelf when I was young . I imaged having a library of myself .

    But now I see no practical reason but I still want to have the books I liked in my bookshelf . Is I wise ?

    I would say it feels like a commitment without purpose which feels useless but I still like the idea of it but unwilling to go through to keep life simple and minimal.

    Appreciate your feedbacks . Thanks.

    1. That’s exactly what I do–borrow books from Libby and buy physical copies of the books I LOVED. It keeps me from getting overwhelmed by meh books that I don’t even want.

    2. Wise? Don’t let logic keep you from having a trophy shelf!
      One day, your digital version could become unavailable, I don’t trust these digital providers! A physical copy would be cherished!

      I buy used leather bound copies of my favorites. Or in a few instances, I’ve had copies rebound in leather if no leather edition is available. Makes for a beautiful bookshelf of books I love.

      I don’t know about wise. I just like owning a physical book.

      I lied. I like owning a lot of books
