10 reasons why books are better than screens

1. They never run out of power

2. You don't get a notification to distract you to watch a funny cat

3. You can go back and forth much quicker by flipping pages

4. Your book becomes a localized place for notes

5. After you're done, you can sell your physical book (or gift it to someone else)

6. Books are one of the best ways to store knowledge

Think about digital formats and how many different mediums we have gone through - CD's, DVDs, etc. - who is to say that epub or pdfs will stick around for the long-term?

7. Books won't affect your sleep like screens do

8. There's a certain energy that comes with holding someone's months or years of effort - you don't get that from looking at it on a screen

9. Some visuals are better on books than on a kindle (say large diagrams, scratch notes from the author)

10. You can build an anti-library (that is, see how much you don't know) through physical books
