But not necessarily will be the one I want to read. We have a surge in book prices for a few years now, even antiquaries sell some very expensive. Also I have books which are very large and uncomfortable to handle (For example Hungary's Military History is 5*21*28 cm and over a kilo, per volume).
If I was a firstworlder, I would buy physical books, and now that one can order it online from anywhere on the globe it doesn't matter that many aren't even published here. Also books have nice smell. And a variety of use. My monitor is standing on Brehm.
On the other hand I don't mind using an e-book reader, not the looks of it, and it's easier to hold it on the loo or in bed.
