Finally recaptured my book-devouring youth with a Kobo and Koreader. Can't be happier!

I used to dislike ereaders, but I've come around to them in the past couple of years. It's just so nice to be able to load up a bunch of books on a small device. I also find I tend to read in the evenings, and having a backlight is really handy for that. I still enjoy physical books, but ereaders win in practicality.

Physical books are intimidating for me to get started, it's easier to obscure lengths and just focus on reading if it's digital, plus public domain and piracy make it more worth it

I noticed that as well, I have some books I've been putting off precisely because I can see how big they are. :)

Yep! It's the biggest reason why I actually started reading theory in the first place, haha

I don't have a Kobo Device, but the KOReader it's pretty useful for sync progress between device, I'm so happy with it! :)

Koreader itself is great! I just love e-ink and my display.

Yes, I was so happy when I realized I’d found something better than the Kindle app.

Above the grey walls and into the yellow sky. Oooh, wheee!
