inthegreensandblues Both for me. And audio too. 6y
ShelfRighteous Print books for when i buy my fav genre....for others i prefer e books 6y
Readingismyescape Both and audiobooks too of course. 6y
olivia.ferz Print always...but if I can't find the physical book at all, I go with the ebook. But audiobooks are a complete no for me. I tried it out but my mind kept wandering away😒 6y
Kaye 3 way tie, print, ebook,audiobook 6y
GripLitGrl Prefer print. E-book are perfect for travel & audiobooks are great to sneak in at work or while multitasking. Basically i love to use all book types 6y
SilversReviews I prefer print, but I have been enjoying e-books. I seem to read faster on my Kindle unless it is my imagination. 😊 6y
introvertedbooks How about both? 😋 6y
rekahlee I like both! I try to always be reading one print book and one ebook. Audiobooks are seldom, I maybe do a few a year 6y
Shvonne Print. I have a hard time focusing on e-books. (edited) 6y
LaLecture I prefer print but I also read ebooks when there‘s a good kindle deal, when I get some though Libby or when I read a classic via Serial Reader. Sometimes it‘s good to have a book on your phone for waiting at the bus stop or other occasions where you just don‘t want to take a book out of your back. But I love the feeling of pages between my fingers and being able to see how far I‘ve come and how much I still have to read 😍. (edited) 6y
Jess_Franzino I love both, honestly. While nothing beats the feel of a print book, I couldn‘t live without my Kindle. I love being able to download whatever books I want whenever I want, and usually for a lower price. Plus, I can take my Kindle with me anywhere & I can read it in the dark. I usually read two books at once: One print & one on Kindle. (Though right now, I‘m reading two prints). 6y
ReadingsByTheC Print. I usually save ebooks for when I travel. 6y
Bookworm.Nerd Both I'd love to try ebooks ☺️ 6y
jlabombard10315 Both. I will always love the look of a full bookshelf (and knowing that I have read them!), but I love the instant gratification of owning my Kindle. I tend to get into a series and then immediately want the next one. And my nearest bookstore is about 30 minutes away, so Kindle does a lot for me! Plus, I love inexpensive books! Kindle and used book sales stock me up for most of the year! 6y
zzz Mostly Kindle, especially with Libby app, but I do just as many real books too ☺ 6y
mrslamping Print!!! There‘s something about having an actually book in your hand📖 6y

@tournevis I just did a week‘s worth of work in three days so your #MakerSwap gift has been a wonderful and much needed pick-me-up. I‘m overwhelmed with all the goodies and I think you might be a little psychic 😜 (one of many examples: I did linocut printing in HS & recently I‘ve been considering picking it back up so it‘s amazing you sent that printmaking book)

Cont‘d ⬇️

teebe @tournevis Thank you so much, I love every bit of it and that it all came with little notes.The painting and the watercolor sketchbook you made are fantastic! And thank you especially for the paint samples! Since I‘m so new at it, I‘ve yet to bite the bullet and buy higher grade watercolors and it‘ll be fun to play around with them. (edited) 6y
LibrarianRyan Very cool pack!! Great job @tournevis 6y
tournevis @teebe I you like it, it's worth getting something good. You don't need to dive into Daniel Smith paints right away, but the Sakura Koi paints I saw on your feed are, shall we say, sub par. 6y

tournevis @teebe I'm super happy you like it. Aside: did I explain the painting at all in my notes to you? 6y
teebe @tournevis Yep there was a note explaining it‘s an abstracted cityscape. Did you base it off any particular city? 6y
tournevis @teebe Only in my head. Did I specify I only used rare historical pigments for it? 6y
teebe @tournevis that‘s so cool! What pigments?! 6y
tournevis @teebe All the colours are from Eallace Seymour 18th century watercolours, made by hand with hand ground or natural pigments in a historically accurate binder. Kendal Green, Weld Reseda, Oxford Bluestone, Genuine Smalt, Blue Verditer, Blue John, Lapis Lazuli Ashes, Serpentine, Turquoise, and natural Indigo. 6y
teebe @tournevis that‘s amazing! How does one even find historical watercolor? 6y
tournevis @teebe Wallace Seymour have a few distributors around the world, including one in Ottawa. There are also a few lone enthusiasts who make such rare paints, such as Dan at PenHolder Paints. They are almost are in Europe. 6y
