I do like physical books, but I personally don't enjoy having to move to change pages.

I usually read lying on my side and that means that every second page I have to hold half the book hovering in the air which gets tiring.

An ebook is way more convenient. I can lie in one position and it doesn't change, and I don't spend half my time changing pages and getting comfortable again.

Also they have built-in backlights so I don't have to light up the whole room to be able to read.
