    Physical Book
    I personally don't read books, but if I had to choose then it would be physical books for sure. I don't want to look at screens any more than I already do as I know its bad for my eyes, however I'm a very visual learner so I know I wouldn't be able to concentrate on an audio book.

    eBook
    As much as I love a good physical book, most of my reading is done on through ebooks either on my kindle or the books app on my phone :3

    Physical Book
    I used to spend every second of my life reading my kindle so I totally get where you're coming from @sinead276 it's like so much more convenient and easy but I feel like physical books are just always gonna be better lol. Also idk if this is gonna make any sense at all but I feel like when I read online I always forget the name of the book after a few months but i think reading a physical book is just more memorable bcs I have to carry it around and look at the cover. Idk if that made sense lol but yeah :)

    Audio Book
    I've never been able to just sit and read a book, but I can listen to audiobooks for hours and hours. They help me do chores and travel without getting too antsy.
    All behaviour is a need trying to be met.
    The truth resists simplicity.

    Physical Book
    I love a good physical book as I love being able to touch and hold a copy of a book in my hands. It is also better personally for me as my eyes hurt if I stare at a screen for too much. I tend to fluctuate between online and physical sometimes as I do read book samples online mostly on Amazon. However, audio books are cool too. I also love the smell of books, I don't know if that sounds weird or odd, but ah the smell of books is relaxing to me so much.
    Just a person who likes pop culture and films

    Physical Book
    I love a physical book, but saying that I’ve recently got into listening to audiobooks on a Night Shift and really like it, I can listen whilst working, but nothing beats a physical book for me

    eBook
    I'd go for Ebooks, all the way - I prefer to read text than hear audio, and it's much more convenient to carry around and store digitally! :)
