Sure, but I can't carry multiple books in my pocket. I have plenty of paper books, but ereaders are the way to go for me. Just have to invest in ones that are easy to change batteries and screens if they break. My kindle3 battery lasted 14 years before I had to change it. Changing it took 15 minutes. Now should last another 14 years. That's a good run for tech.
But yeah, no changing batteries on paper books. Truth be told tho, they don't make paper books as well as they used to either. For many, the glue binding fails after time.
