Yeah I do have one and the other commenter idea of having it in the bathroom is a good idea. Though I do have a lot of physical books I want to reach that are psychology and programming related. So trying to more figure out those.
Though on my e-reader I right now have 3 books 33% finished ๐ (though two are anthologies of multiple books or stories so at least there is that)
Personally, I used to be pressured to finish books I'm halfway through but I've since learnt that it's so much better to quit books you just don't like. Good books (subjective to you) are ones where it doesn't feel like work to read. That being said I torrent most of mine, I can see how it's different if you bought em.
As for textbooks, I've found no satisfactory way to read them except on a pc.
Yeah I feel that, I also think there are some books where the friction is there enough that audiobooks are perfectly fine as a substitute. I think for textbooks maybe it's more than I need a direct and tangible reason to use the knowledge but then it won't feel I'm reading to learn but reading to do something else. It ain't easy ๐
