Reading across platforms…

There’s always been a big amount of rivalry between different mediums of readin. Avid readers and book lovers would always go for physical copies and if you try to change their mind they will stare you down, literally. I consider myself an avid reader but somehow the platform has never mattered to me. I read easily and without complaints across any and all platforms, so long as I get to read the books I want. Let me elaborate how you can manage your reading across different mediums without it becoming a prejudice that only curbs your reading.

Physical copies- What I do is that I only buy physical copies- paperbacks or hardcovers- when I want to collect a particular author’s works or if it is a book that I would really want on my shelf. These go mostly for literary fiction and award winning titles or classics.

E-books- I love reading on my Kindle and there are so many titles that you could get for free on your Kindle or you can just get an annual unlimited subscription for a lot of free titles, new and old. In my Kindle I mostly keep light-reads, some travel and leisure books, crimes or pacey thrillers, or the odd young adult titles.

Audiobooks- This is a very interesting platform and I think a lot many people are gravitating towards it these days. With so little spare time at hand, audiobooks can be really convenient. I put on non-fiction titles in the background while I do other work, or poetry and some classics before bed. It’s very cool.
