We must have different reading habits, because my experience has been the exact opposite. On my Kindle I can read every book with the same font, same text size, same layout, same backlight. I don't have to struggle to balance big heavy doorstops, a book feels the same in my hand whether it has 200 or 1200 pages. The latest Paperwhite models are waterproof too, so I can take mine with me in the tub with no fear of dropping it in the water and ruining it. I read dozens of books each year, and a big reason for that is how convenient it is to do it on an e-reader.
Now, tech books, graphical novels, comics? For sure an e-reader sucks for these, and I still buy these in paper form, but for plain words (fiction and non-fiction)? You can pry my Kindle from my cold dead hands.
