Reply to comment by Thornescape in How big is your personal library? Which genre takes up the majority? by G0Huskies

I'm not a fan of ebooks. I prefer the physical book. I also like to see the books I've been sucked into in the past on the shelf. Memories!

Nonetheless, to each his/her own. Not everyone has alot of space in their house or apartment. I'm not even allowed to have a personal library due to the weight. Lol

Both are inherently good, but they have their advantages and disadvantages. There are also some benefits to having some cherished and beautiful physical books, but also a large ebook collection.

I agree with the wanting to see the books I've read on a shelf aspect, but again, I can't afford every book I want to read in physical copy.

This year, I started making little miniatures of the books I've read that will go into a jar for each year, so I can still have that visual representation even of the ebooks!

Oh what!? That's awesome. Can you make a post and take a pic of the miniature books? I'd like to see.
