The Amazon Kindle has completely transformed the way I read for pleasure.
It is not as satisfactory for technical books, or anything with a lot of illustrations, but for standard novels it was a real game-changer.
- pull_my_finger 5y agoI've heard this a lot, but when you get good at formatting your ebooks it becomes nice for them as well. I generally use a combination of briss[1] and k2pdfopt[2] to crop the margins and sometimes split on columns etc for pdfs and it makes all the difference. Sometimes it can require a fair bit of manual tweaking, but you only have to do it once and it's very much worth it in reading experience.
