    • My e-reader
    I have bought a kobo clara hd bw! I've been using it for a couple of hours, as I only got it a few days ago (april 15th 2025). I will share my thoughts eventually, but so far so good! Really enjoying it. I.. acquired my books from these free websites ;)

    • About e-reading
    i've been thinking of buying an e-reader, as a way to both save money and be more sustainable in my reading habits. after some research though i've found out that ebooks don't necessarily help the planet: ereaders are made with incredible amounts of minerals, water, energy, they store ebooks on servers, you need to charge your ereader with power.. there are many things that i need to consider before moving onto digital reading. I'm a big physical book lover, but you know what else i love? life. surviving on the planet. human rights. earth rights. hell yeah. so if moving to ereading can help sustainability, i'll happily do it! but right now i'm thinking about it.. there are pros and cons to both reading methods, and i'll figure it out. ereading seems so be overall better if you read more than five books a year. If you read less than that, then paper is less wasteful. But paper also allows me and my friends to exchange books.. isn't that saving resources as well? ah, what a mess! i'll keep informing myself and update you on my choice :)
