People have good criticisms about e-readers like the Kindle. It&#x27;s not great for technical books. It can be a little laggy and not as sensory compared to paper books.<p>That said, the ability to retake space is soooooo worth it. My Kindle has dozens of books, magazines, and long form articles. Over the long term, I have saved volumes of physical space and pounds of weight.<p>While I miss the physical look of having rows of beautiful books decorate a place, I don&#x27;t mind having more open space for my psyche and other activities (music).
