    4. Create a database of quotations that can be used in idea lists, presentations and blogs

    5. eBooks don't take up physical space

    6. You can store 1000s of eBooks on your device

    8. eBooks tend to be cheaper then physical books

    9. I can make embedded notes

    10. I can copy and paste hard-to-understand passages into an AI summarizer tool to gain comprehension
