I still buy physical books.
- If I step foot in an independent bookstore, I buy a book (or something else) to support small booksellers.
- When I go to the UK or Ireland (once or twice a year), I love browsing in bookstores and I will but at least one or two books.
- If I like the book as a physical object (for example, I love Persephone Books, Vintage Classics, Oxford World Classics but NOT the latest incarnation of the Penguin Classics).
- If I loved a book I read on my Kindle, I will sometimes buy a physical copy as well.
- I buy bilingual books: one page in the original language, the other page in my native French (I'm not sure you can do that on an e-reader, except maybe a Kindle Scribe or similar devices).
