I'd be interested in hearing about the reading patterns of folk here. Kindle or paperback ?

Paperback for me. I do own a Kindle but I rarely use it. Originally Posted by DebkoX

A mix.
No “absolute rules”, but usually Kindle when travelling, library books when at home.
And comics...mainly read via comixology.

Certainly worth a read to see what you think. The novel enjoyed most was “Do Androids dream of Electric Sheep”, which formed basis for the film “Blade Runner”.

Journey to the End of the Night, by Louis-Ferdinand Céline. Had this one in the "to read" list from quite a while and today I decided to finally start reading it

Comics on an app since there isn't comic shop within 50 miles of me. Physical books most of the time otherwise except for RPG books - the downloads are normally much cheaper. Originally Posted by DebkoX

I always like paper better. The numbers of books I've read in my iPad are minimum and they're mostly material to study for college. When it comes to comicbooks, there's a better balance, but even then, the quantity of stories I consume digitally doesn't come nowhere near the amount of physical comics I read Originally Posted by DebkoX

On Earth We're Briefly Gorgeous by Ocean Vuong, a novel written as a letter by a first generation Vietnamese American immigrant son to his mother, detailing the history of his family and the complicated relationship between the two with some revelations about his own life. Reads like a memoir with some poetic flourishes and a non-linear narrative.
